Moving Icebergs
Author: Steve Patty
Publisher: Dialogues in Action
ISBN: 9780985297107
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 168
Book Description
Every person and organization has a growing edge, a challenge of development or opportunity for progress. If we can help people move forward at that growing edge, we will see a brilliant realization of human and organizational potential. It's not simple or easy to achieve lasting change in people, though. We will need to shape their actions on the surface. But even more, we will need to engage the deeper parts of their ideology-their values, aims, presence, beliefs, and more. We will need to move more than just the tip of the iceberg in our human systems. Moving Icebergs will show us how.

Icebergs, Zombies, and the Ultra-Thin
Author: Matthew Soules
Publisher: Chronicle Books
ISBN: 1648960294
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
"Soules's excellent book makes sense of the capitalist forces we all feel but cannot always name... Icebergs, Zombies, and the Ultra Thin arms architects and the general public with an essential understanding of how capitalism makes property. Required reading for those who think tomorrow can be different from today."— Jack Self, coeditor of Real Estates: Life Without Debt In Icebergs, Zombies, and the Ultra Thin, Matthew Soules issues an indictment of how finance capitalism dramatically alters not only architectural forms but also the very nature of our cities and societies. We rarely consider architecture to be an important factor in contemporary economic and political debates, yet sparsely occupied ultra-thin "pencil towers" develop in our cities, functioning as speculative wealth storage for the superrich, and cavernous "iceberg" homes extend architectural assets many stories below street level. Meanwhile, communities around the globe are blighted by zombie and ghost urbanism, marked by unoccupied neighborhoods and abandoned housing developments. Learn how the use of architecture as an investment tool has accelerated in recent years, heightening inequality and contributing to worldwide financial instability: • See how investment imperatives shape what and how we build, changing the very structure of our communities • Delve into high-profile projects, like the luxury apartments of architect Rafael Viñoly's 432 Park Avenue • Understand the convergence of technology, finance, and spirituality, which together are configuring the financialized walls within which we eat, sleep, and work Includes dozens of photos and drawings of architectural phenomena that have changed the way we live. Essential reading for anyone interested in architecture, design, economics, and understanding the way our world is formed.
