Book Description
The 2015 SALA Masters of Urban Design Winter Studio expanded on the cohort's collective and individual achievements from the Fall Studio that declared growth strategies for Surrey, British Columbia at the city/ regional scale. At the conclusion of the Fall Studio, Surrey officials requested that the second Winter Studio investigate the Guildford/104 Avenue Corridor precinct given anticipated light rail transit investment. This 2 mile by 1 mile precinct is characterized by varying, and complex, urban structure, related built form /typologies, a large scale economically viable mall that has recently enjoyed substantive re-investment, an active small business community, distinguished open space and natural landscape/ water systems amenity and certain housing affordability allowing entry into the Canadian/West Coast market. The Guildford Precinct is recognized as a "market entry portal" that distinguishes it as an "Arrival City".

Book Description
This book addresses the links between transport and sustainable urban development, from an analysis of the global picture to issues in transport and energy intensity, public policy and the institutional and organisational constraints on change. The central part of the book explores these links in more detail at city level, covering land use and development, economic measures, and the role that technology can play. The final part looks for inspiration from events in developing countries and the means by which we can move from the unsustainable present to a more sustainable future.

Book Description
Guildford still retains much of its 'Olde Worlde' charm in the twenty-first century; it is what makes it such a popular place for tourists from all over the world who come and take photographs of the Guildhall, the castle and the picturesque River Wey. Most of the images in this book are from Philip Hutchinson's personal collection and are appearing here in print for the first time. Some of the places featured include the High Street in Victorian times, Guildford shops in the 1950s and the Royal Grammar School. This new publication will be of interest in its own right or as a companion to those photographic books of memories that have gone before and will appeal to local people and visitors.

Book Description
The classic postapocalyptic thriller with “all the reality of a vividly realized nightmare” (The Times, London). Triffids are odd, interesting little plants that grow in everyone’s garden. Triffids are no more than mere curiosities—until an event occurs that alters human life forever. What seems to be a spectacular meteor shower turns into a bizarre, green inferno that blinds everyone and renders humankind helpless. What follows is even stranger: spores from the inferno cause the triffids to suddenly take on a life of their own. They become large, crawling vegetation, with the ability to uproot and roam about the country, attacking humans and inflicting pain and agony. William Masen somehow managed to escape being blinded in the inferno, and now after leaving the hospital, he is one of the few survivors who can see. And he may be the only one who can save his species from chaos and eventual extinction . . . With more than a million copies sold, The Day of the Triffids is a landmark of speculative fiction, and “an outstanding and entertaining novel” (Library Journal). “A thoroughly English apocalypse, it rivals H. G. Wells in conveying how the everyday invaded by the alien would feel. No wonder Stephen King admires Wyndham so much.” —Ramsey Campbell, author of The Overnight “One of my all-time favorite novels. It’s absolutely convincing, full of little telling details, and that sweet, warm sensation of horror and mystery.” —Joe R. Lansdale, author of Edge of Dark Water
