Book excerpt: Die in Neuenburg ansässigen Architekten Geninsaca Delefortrie machen seit einigen Jahren mit ihren Projekten auf sich aufmerksam. Die Art und Weise der Projektrealisierung, die Geninasca Delefortrie betreiben ist ebenso ungewöhnlich wie sie einen Weg jenseits der gängigen Akquiseformen weist. Spätestens mit dem Bau des neuen städtische Fussballstadion in der Maladière, drang das Büro auch in das Bewusstsein einer breiteren Öffentlichkeit. Das Büro ist damit nicht nur zur treibenden Kraft der lokalen Architekturszene geworden, sondern, viel wichtiger, auch der Stadtentwicklung und damit Beispiel, wie Architektur bewusst städtische Entwicklungsprozesse beeinflussen und auch lenken kann. Die Architekten sind dabei – das ist das besondere– ihre eigenen Auftraggeber: Sie definieren städtische Grundstücke mit Entwicklungspotenzial und gehen dann auf die Städte zu, um gemeinsam mit den zuständigen Ämtern Bebauungspläne wie Konzept für die Bebauung zu entwickeln. Mit der ersten Monografie über Geninasca Delefortrie wird nun erstmals ihr beeindruckendes Werk einer breiteren Öffentlichkeit präsentiert.

Book Synopsis Fighting for Space by : Amy Shira Teitel
Download or read book Fighting for Space written by Amy Shira Teitel and published by Grand Central Publishing. This book was released on 2020-02-18 with total page 427 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spaceflight historian Amy Shira Teitel tells the riveting story of the female pilots who each dreamed of being the first American woman in space. When the space age dawned in the late 1950s, Jackie Cochran held more propeller and jet flying records than any pilot of the twentieth century—man or woman. She had led the Women's Auxiliary Service Pilots during the Second World War, was the first woman to break the sound barrier, ran her own luxury cosmetics company, and counted multiple presidents among her personal friends. She was more qualified than any woman in the world to make the leap from atmosphere to orbit. Yet it was Jerrie Cobb, twenty-five years Jackie's junior and a record-holding pilot in her own right, who finagled her way into taking the same medical tests as the Mercury astronauts. The prospect of flying in space quickly became her obsession. While the American and international media spun the shocking story of a "woman astronaut" program, Jackie and Jerrie struggled to gain control of the narrative, each hoping to turn the rumored program into their own ideal reality—an issue that ultimately went all the way to Congress. This dual biography of audacious trailblazers Jackie Cochran and Jerrie Cobb presents these fascinating and fearless women in all their glory and grit, using their stories as guides through the shifting social, political, and technical landscape of the time.

Book Synopsis Community Action against Racism in West Las Vegas by : Robert J. McKee
Download or read book Community Action against Racism in West Las Vegas written by Robert J. McKee and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2014-02-27 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book chronicles Robert J. McKee's active participation in a successful protest action, led primarily by black females in the historically African American community of West Las Vegas, Nevada, from 2008-2013. The residents protested the closure of a main street (F Street) in their community for the expansion of Interstate 15. The community felt the street closure was racially motivated, with the intent of further alienating and isolating this already marginalized community. The street closure was one of many instances in a protracted history of events that further exacerbated race relations in Las Vegas. With only minimal support from the black church, courageous women mobilized their community from a neighborhood coalition into a successful community protest group, despite resistance from city officials and a racist backlash from some Las Vegas residents. The key players in this work were then-Mayor Oscar Goodman, State Senator and now U.S. Congressman Steven Horsford, and a host of local and state leaders. The closing of F Street creates an environ for McKee to discuss the current problems of race relations, urban sociology, city planning, social action, ethnography, and institutionalized racism.
