Book excerpt: The story of the evolution of the urban freeway, the competing visions that informed it, and the emerging alternatives for more sustainable urban transportation. Urban freeways often cut through the heart of a city, destroying neighborhoods, displacing residents, and reconfiguring street maps. These massive infrastructure projects, costing billions of dollars in transportation funds, have been shaped for the last half century by the ideas of highway engineers, urban planners, landscape architects, and architects -- with highway engineers playing the leading role. In Changing Lanes, Joseph DiMento and Cliff Ellis describe the evolution of the urban freeway in the United States, from its rural parkway precursors through the construction of the interstate highway system to emerging alternatives for more sustainable urban transportation. DiMento and Ellis describe controversies that arose over urban freeway construction, focusing on three cases: Syracuse, which early on embraced freeways through its center; Los Angeles, which rejected some routes and then built I-105, the most expensive urban road of its time; and Memphis, which blocked the construction of I-40 through its core. Finally, they consider the emerging urban highway removal movement and other innovative efforts by cities to re-envision urban transportation.

Book excerpt: In the beginning, an entrepreneur’s focus is on starting and growing their business. For many, the thrills of overcoming the challenges and hitting those curve balls out of the park become just as important as actually achieving the original goals. And then one day, everything is different and entrepreneurs find themselves ready to leave the business. In Changing Lanes Gina Catalano shows entrepreneurs how to ready their business (and themselves) for the next step—preparing to sell or transition to the next generation of leaders. Catalano illustrates her story with the fictional character Sara Berry, the seasoned owner of a successful company who is at a crossroads in her business and her life. Understanding her vision and learning what it will take to get there, Sara eventually is able to achieve her dreams for herself, her family, and her business. Whether you want to sell your business soon or are just know that you could, Changing Lanes will give you the tools and confidence to make this a reality. After all, isn’t that what you’ve worked for?

What are the risk and rewards? This book spells it out by recounting the journeys of a baker’s dozen of corporate high-fliers who have made this transition and more than thrived. Their stories tell what non-profit leaders actually do, what they had to consider in making the decision about whether to change jobs, what they learnt after shifting from a corporate to a non-profit, and their advice for anyone considering a similar move. Changing Lanes, Changing Lives is the first-ever collection of stories about corporate leaders who have transitioned to become successful non-profit champions. The book tells the inspiring stories of the following non-profit leaders: § Alfred Tan (Singapore Children’s Society) § Colin Goh (The Old Parliament House) § Corinna Lim (AWARE) § Tim Oei (AWWA) § Veronica Gamez (aidha) § Yap Su-Yin (Tan Chin Tuan Foundation) § Chan Wah Tiong (All Saints Home) § Junko Yoda (Community Linked) § Foo Pek Hong (Kidney Dialysis Foundation) § Debbie Seah (Make-A-Wish Foundation) § William Wan (Singapore Kindness Movement) § Jose Raymond (Singapore Environment Council) § Martina Wong (School Pocket Money Fund) CNPL President Laurence Lien, who, himself, left a successful public service career to be the CEO of the National Volunteer & Philanthropy Centre, contributes a foreword.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses two of the most important trends in political economy during the last two decades - globalization and decentralization - in the context of the world's most rapidly growing economic power, China. The intent is to provide a better understanding of how local political and economic institutions shape the ability of Chinese state-owned firms to utilize foreign direct investment (FDI) to remake themselves in the transition from inefficient and technologically backward firms into powerful national champions. In a global economy, the author argues, local governments are increasingly the agents of industrial transformation at the level of the firm. Local institutions are durable over time, and they have important economic consequences. Through an analysis of five Chinese regions, the treatment seeks to specify the opportunities and constraints that alternative institutional structures create, how they change over time, and ultimately, how they prepare Chinese firms for the challenge of global competition.

It is well written, and will captivate the hearts and minds of readers everywhere."--Kait Neese, director, Best Selling Books Right Agency"A fascinating story about overcoming the consequences of abuse. Too many women deal with the long-term consequences of a traumatic childhood. Hailey Rose's story should inspire others to never stop reaching for their dreams and to not let the past weigh them down." --Vicky Lopez-Beecham, MD"I was captivated by this story, set at the beginning of Internet dating in the late '90s. Hailey's story is truly cathartic, a brave prelude to one of the most psychotic female characters I've ever encountered, culminating in a chilling end that defies all logic ... and should have made the news."--David Clarke Carruthers, screenwriterHailey recounts her abusive childhood that still haunts her today as an adult. Growing up in a large, dysfunctional family, Hailey lived in perpetual chaos with feelings of low self-worth. Her tumultuous childhood defined the only road she would ever know as a child.

Audiences will be glued to their seats from start to finish, as they find out who pays the ultimate price for love.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The market demands for skills, knowledge and personalities have positioned robotics as an important field in both engineering and science. To meet these challenging - mands, robotics has already seen its success in automating many industrial tasks in factories. And, a new era will come for us to see a greater success of robotics in n- industrial environments. In anticipating a wider deployment of intelligent and auto- mous robots for tasks such as manufacturing, eldercare, homecare, edutainment, search and rescue, de-mining, surveillance, exploration, and security missions, it is necessary for us to push the frontier of robotics into a new dimension, in which motion and intelligence play equally important roles. After the success of the inaugural conference, the purpose of the Second Inter- tional Conference on Intelligent Robotics and Applications was to provide a venue where researchers, scientists, engineers and practitioners throughout the world could come together to present and discuss the latest achievement, future challenges and exciting applications of intelligent and autonomous robots. In particular, the emphasis of this year’s conference was on “robot intelligence for achieving digital manufact- ing and intelligent automations. ” This volume of Springer’s Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence and Lecture Notes in Computer Science contains accepted papers presented at ICIRA 2009, held in Singapore, December 16–18, 2009. On the basis of the reviews and recommendations by the international Program Committee members, we decided to accept 128 papers having technical novelty, out of 173 submissions received from different parts of the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook provides a comprehensive and instructive coverage of vehicular traffic flow dynamics and modeling. It makes this fascinating interdisciplinary topic, which to date was only documented in parts by specialized monographs, accessible to a broad readership. Numerous figures and problems with solutions help the reader to quickly understand and practice the presented concepts. This book is targeted at students of physics and traffic engineering and, more generally, also at students and professionals in computer science, mathematics, and interdisciplinary topics. It also offers material for project work in programming and simulation at college and university level. The main part, after presenting different categories of traffic data, is devoted to a mathematical description of the dynamics of traffic flow, covering macroscopic models which describe traffic in terms of density, as well as microscopic many-particle models in which each particle corresponds to a vehicle and its driver. Focus chapters on traffic instabilities and model calibration/validation present these topics in a novel and systematic way. Finally, the theoretical framework is shown at work in selected applications such as traffic-state and travel-time estimation, intelligent transportation systems, traffic operations management, and a detailed physics-based model for fuel consumption and emissions.
