Detroit's Eastern Market: A Farmers Market Shopping and Cooking Guide, Third Edition (Painted Turtle)

by Bruce Harkness Lois Johnson Margaret Thomas

Since 1887, Detroit’s Eastern Market, the largest open-air market of its kind in the United States, has been home to an amazing community of farmers, merchants, and food lovers. Specialty shops, bakeries, spice companies, meat and poultry markets, restaurants, jazz cafés, old-time saloons, produce firms, gourmet shops, and cold-storage warehouses cover Eastern Market’s three square miles. Its many streets and vendors reflect the varied cultures and ethnicities that have shaped the city of Detroit. In this third edition of Detroit’s Eastern Market, authors Lois Johnson and Margaret Thomas recount the history of the market with additional stories and personal accounts of families who have worked and shopped there for as many as four generations. The authors have updated store information and added new restaurants and businesses to their original listings, reflecting the changes and additions that have taken place in Eastern Market since the previous edition in 2005. Richly illustrated with all new photos, Detroit’s Eastern Market features more than a hundred pages of delightful recipes (including 17 new ones) from market retailers, farmers, chefs, and customers.

Developing Disaster Resilient Housing in Vietnam: Challenges and Solutions

by Tuan Anh Tran

This book provides a comprehensive understanding on disaster resilient housing within the Vietnam context particularly and the developing world generally. The book has identified the root causes of housing vulnerability, restrictions to safe housing development, concepts of disaster resilient housing, key issues/factors implementers and building designers need to consider, and ways of achieving resilient housing outcomes in actual design projects. The design and development of disaster resilient housing has been framed into three main themes: (i) community consultation, (ii) the role of built-environment professionals and (iii) design responses for resilience. To achieve these themes, there is a variety of contextual and intervening conditions that need to be addressed and met to provide an enabling environment for promoting disaster resilient housing. These three themes are among the most arguable issues in recent debates and discussions, academically and practically, regarding disaster risk reduction and safe housing development. In addition, this book also provides the evidence-based design framework for disaster resilient housing upon which design ideas and solutions for safe and resilient housing can be generated and shaped.

Diálogos: Placemaking in Latino Communities

by Michael Rios Leonardo Vazquez Lucrezia Miranda

Latinos are one of the largest and fastest growing social groups in the United States, and their increased presence is profoundly shaping the character of urban, suburban, and rural places. This is a response to these developments and is the first book written for readers seeking to learn about, engage and plan with Latino communities. It considers how placemaking in marginalized communities sheds light on, and can inform, community-building practices of professionals and place dwellers alike. Diálogos: Placemaking in Latino Communities will help readers better understand the conflicts and challenges inherent in placemaking, and to make effective and sustainable choices for practice in an increasingly multi-ethnic world. The essays explore three aspects of place: the appropriation and territorialization of the built environment, the claiming of rights through collective action, and a sense of belonging through civic participation. The authors illustrate their ideas through case studies and explain the implications of their work for placemaking practice. A consistent theme about planning and design practice in Latino communities emerges throughout the book: placemaking happens with or without professional planners and designers. All of the essays in Diálogos demonstrate the need to not only imagine, build, and make places with local communities, but also to re-imagine how we practice democracy inclusive of cross-cultural exchange, understanding, and respect. This will require educators, students, and working professionals to incorporate the knowledge and skills of cultural competency into their everyday practices.

Dialogues between Psychoanalysis and Architecture: The Relational Space of the Consulting Room Through the Senses

by Christina Moutsou

Dialogues between Psychoanalysis and Architecture explores the multisensory space of therapy, real or virtual, and how important it is in providing the container for the therapeutic relationship and process. This book is highly original in bringing psychoanalysis and architecture together and highlighting how both disciplines strive to achieve transformation of our psychic space. It brings together contributions that comprise three parts: the first explores the space of the consulting room through the senses to examine issues such as smell and its link with memory and belonging, hearing out the Other, the psychoanalytic couch, the medical therapy room and the so-called sixth sense; secondly, the book questions how the consulting room can represent or be redesigned to reflect the philosophy that underlies the therapy process, foregrounding an architectural point of view; and thirdly, the book attends to the significance of the consulting room as a virtual space, as it emerged during the pandemic of COVID-19 and beyond. Architectural, psychotherapeutic and interdisciplinary perspectives allow for an important new dimension on the psychological use of space, and will appeal to psychoanalysts, psychoanalytic and integrative psychotherapists, art therapists, students of psychotherapy, as well as architects and designers.

Diario de un carpintero: El método noruego de hacer las cosas bien

by Ole Thorstensen

Tras el éxito de El libro de la madera, llega un nuevo descubrimiento nórdico; aclamado y publicado por Karl Ove Knausgård: «Un tributo poético y enriquecedor al trabajo manual.» Traducido en 16 países. Diario de un carpintero es una historia sencilla y cautivadora a la vez sobre la rehabilitación de un loft, desde el momento en el que el maestro carpintero Ole Thorstensen entrega un presupuesto hasta que la casa está lista para ser ocupada. A medida que el proyecto evoluciona, vemos el proceso de construcción a través de los ojos de Thorstensen: los meticulosos detalles, el proceso de solucionar problemas, la paciencia y el trabajo en equipo necesario para llevarlo todo a cabo y, sobre todo, el complejo y fructífero diálogo con los clientes que le encomendaron el trabajo. Thorstensen aborda mucho más que los delicados aspectos prácticos de su oficio. Su pasión y experiencia de treinta años lo llevan hasta profundas reflexiones sobre la naturaleza del trabajo manual, los oficios y la vida misma. Diario de un carpintero es una fuente de inspiración para todo tipo de reformas y proyectos, una oda al trabajo bien hecho que transmite la felicidad de ver cómo va tomando forma. La crítica ha dicho...«Un tributo poético y enriquecedor al trabajo manual y al arte que este contiene. Ole Thorstensen escribe sobre los valores que el trabajo artesanal aporta a nuestra sociedad, y su Diario de un carpintero es un oportuno recordatorio de que no podemos consentir perderlos.»Karl Ove Knausgård «Un autor novel que lleva casi treinta años trabajando de carpintero y cuyas manos son su currículum vitae. Sus memorias, Diario de un carpintero, son una oda a todo lo que han hecho.»The Economist «Un humilde pero noble tributo al valor del trabajo honesto, un relato auténtico y absorbente de un maestro carpintero noruego sobre su oficio lleno de verdades puras sobre cómo seguir su propio camino.»Booklist «Un libro absolutamente adorable.»Asahi Newspaper (Japón) «Una agradable incursión en el mundo del artesano llena de una poesía y una dignidad muy verdaderas.»Berlingske «Revelador. [...] El resultado es una buena mezcla de sociología y filosofía, por no hablar de la ética.»Klassekampen «Un libro sólido como el oficio que describe.»Dagbladet «Ole Thorstensen escribe de una forma convincente acerca del trabajo duro como algo honorable, sin caer en ideas románticas.»Bokmagasinet

Diarmuid Gavin: An Autobiography

by Diarmuid Gavin

His work has long been recognised for its innovation and his reputation for clashes with the so-called gardening 'establishment' are famous.

This is Diarmuid's characteristically open and honest account of his chaotic, inspired and infuriating (to himself and others) road to success.
