Описание: In a world of increasing mobility, how people of different cultures live together is a key issue of our age, especially for those responsible for planning and running cities. This book analyzes the links between urban change and cultural diversity. It offers tools for practitioners such as the `intercultural lens`, and `indicators of openness`.
Описание: In 1924 when thirty-two-year-old Edmond Landry kissed his family good-bye and left for the leprosarium in Carville, Louisiana, leprosy, now referred to as Hansen's Disease, stigmatized and disfigured but did not kill. Those with leprosy were incarcerated in the federal hospital and isolated from family and community. Phones were unavailable, transportation was precarious, and fear was rampant. Edmond entered the hospital (as did his four other siblings), but he did not surrender to his fate. He fought with his pen and his limited energy to stay connected to his family and to improve living conditions for himself and other patientsClaire Manes, Edmond's granddaughter, lived much of her life gripped by the silence surrounding her grandfather. When his letters were discovered, she became inspired to tell his story through her scholarship and his writing. Out of the Shadow of Leprosy: The Carville Letters and Stories of the Landry Family presents her grandfather's letters and her own studies of narrative and Carville during much of the twentieth century. The book becomes a testament to Edmond's determination to maintain autonomy and dignity in the land of the living dead. Letters and stories of the other four siblings further enhance the picture of life in Carville from 1919 to 1977.

Описание: Luke is at the helm of one of the very first start-up Internet Service Provider networks, which he founded, continues to administer, and into which he personally, recruits his own townspeople and many more throughout the New York City Metro Area. Luke's dark and grim online seduction of every woman on the block, and his delusively obsessive, sad, yet comedic fantasy sub-plot with a Television star named Martha, props this fiction throughout. Kat, a New York City Ballerina, lives next door to Luke, and unknowingly becomes his latest special haunt. In time, an unsuspecting, silent and invisible watcher set out to methodically squelch the pained psychotic Luke, then rescue and deliver unto himself the lovely Kat. ...Under the shrewd eye of Luke?
THE US REVIEW OF BOOKS BOOK REVIEW:
"That is surface Luke at the shallow end, but the deep end is darker."
Landry prefaces his techno-thriller with an overview of the birth, infancy, and rise of the internet with a reminder that there's no centralized governance of it. Landry's work shines as a cautionary tale that examines our behaviors in a technology-driven world. It is a disturbing, Hitchcockian story that explores the ideologies of cyberspace, escapism, and illusions of safety and privacy. Here, Landry probes the dangers of reality versus fantasy and justifications of awful decisions in an alarming, compulsive read. Book review by Dylan Ward
