Résumé:
We tend to think of war as being fought in specific, bounded places—war zones. But since the end of World War II, warfare has taken different forms, with the wars themselves often undeclared and their battlegrounds ill-defined. This book addresses that shift.

Résumé:
We tend to think of war as being fought in specific, bounded places—war zones. But since the end of World War II, warfare has taken different forms, with the wars themselves often undeclared and their battlegrounds ill-defined. This book addresses that shift. ''War Zones'' examines the people, landscapes, and built environments that are subject to both the civil and military aims and control of armed conflicts today. From colonial or total war, asymmetric war or counterinsurgency to barricaded or besieged cities, refugee camps or borderlines, to nuclear bunkers or ''war ghosts,'' to states of emergency and drone warfare, these texts disclose the complicated spatial aspects and process of formation of war zones past and present.

Résumé:
Our cities are "smart" and getting smarter as information processing capability is embedded throughout more and more of our urban infrastructure. Few of us object to traffic light control systems that respond to the ebbs and flows of city traffic; but we might be taken aback when discount coupons for our favorite espresso drink are beamed to our mobile phones as we walk(...)

Résumé:
Our cities are "smart" and getting smarter as information processing capability is embedded throughout more and more of our urban infrastructure. Few of us object to traffic light control systems that respond to the ebbs and flows of city traffic; but we might be taken aback when discount coupons for our favorite espresso drink are beamed to our mobile phones as we walk past a Starbucks. This publication explores the experience of living in a city that can remember, correlate, and anticipate. Five teams of architects, artists, and technologists imagine a variety of future interactions that take place as computing leaves the desktop and spills out onto the sidewalks, streets, and public spaces of the city.

Résumé:
This book is inspired by the experience of those who, usually for professional reasons, have to continually travel by air from one city, country or continent to another. Dubbed 'frequent flyers' by the airline companies, these seasoned travellers face journeys that are profoundly different from those who only occasionally go by plane. The photographs have been taken by Francesco Cianciotta, a manager in a multinational company who also belongs to the world of corporate travellers. When flying for work, he shares with other experienced passengers the haste of the journeys, the boredom of the queues at passport control, the time spent waiting for flights, the disorientation caused by jet lag and fleeting encounters in the cafeterias.

Résumé:
In this wide-ranging Very Short Introduction to climate, Mark Maslin considers all aspects of the global climate system, exploring and explaining the different components that control climate on Earth. He considers the processes that allow energy to reach the Earth and how it is redistributed around the planet by the ocean-atmosphere system; the relationship and differences between climate and the weather; how climate has affected life on Earth and human settlements; and the cyclic and quasi-cyclic features of climate such as the Milankovitch cycles and El Nino. He concludes by touching on the issue of climate change, and outlines some of the approaches that are now being taken to tackle it.
