Résumé:
"The ecological engineer" is a new book series that celebrates the most innovative engineers in North America and the practices and principles that they use to produce structures, systems and technologies, in a way that embraces the emerging philosophy of sustainable design. Organized into three critical sections – practice, principles and projects – the book provides a valuable resource and touchstone for engineers, architects and other building professionals who hope to embrace an ethic that is responsible to both people and the environment. "Volume one: keen engineering" focuses on the work of one of the sustainable MEP firms in North America – KEEN Engineering. As mechanical, electrical and plumbing engineers who work on projects all over the continent, they have consistently been inspiring on multiple levels – as a company, as individuals and just by the sheer volume and quality of their work.

Résumé:
The County Court House, symbolic center of each community from the Colonial era to the present, reflects the attitudes and aspirations of each generation up to our time. This exploration of a vital part of American life tells us much about the people who left their mark on these spaces over a period of two and a half centuries and makes an important contribution to the knowledge of the architecture of the United States. From log cabin to high rise, the photographs and texts encompass modest Colonial buildings and flamboyant structures which are the reflections of properity and pride. The court house stands for the dignity of the law and the democratic principle and is the most significant single building widely distributed across the country.

Résumé:
This book is a guide to a little-known part of North American history. It tells of the settlement of the St. Lawrence Valley, but also of the Montreal and Quebec-based explorers and traders who travelled, mapped, and inhabited most of North America, and embrothered the peoples they met. Based on meticulous research, Jacques Lacoursière and Robin Philpot connect everyday life to the events that emerged as historical turning points in the life of a people, thus shedding new light on Quebec’s 450-year history — and the historical forces that lie behind its two recent efforts to gain independence.
