Book Synopsis :

For more than forty years Jan Gehl has helped to transform urban environments around the world based on his research into the ways people actually use?or could use?the spaces where they live and work. In this revolutionary book, Gehl presents his latest work creating (or recreating) cityscapes on a human scale. He clearly explains the methods and tools he uses to reconfigure unworkable cityscapes into the landscapes he believes they should be: cities for people. Taking into account changing demographics and changing lifestyles, Gehl emphasizes four human issues that he sees as essential to successful city planning. He explains how to develop cities that are Lively, Safe, Sustainable, and Healthy. Focusing on these issues leads Gehl to think of even the largest city on a very small scale.

Reading the Signs By : Keira Andrews READ BOOK NOW   DOWNLOAD BOOK NOW   Book Synopsis : This hot-headed rookie needs discipline-on and off the field. Pitcher Nico Agresta is desperate to live up to his family's baseball legacy. Since he was a teenager crushing on his big brother's teammate, he's known he can't act on his desires.

Then he's traded to a team that wants a vet behind the plate to tame their new star pitcher. Jake is shocked to find the gangly kid he once knew has grown i...
