Book Description
A new way forward for sustainable quality of life in cities of all sizes Strong Towns: A Bottom-Up Revolution to Build American Prosperity is a book of forward-thinking ideas that breaks with modern wisdom to present a new vision of urban development in the United States. Presenting the foundational ideas of the Strong Towns movement he co-founded, Charles Marohn explains why cities of all sizes continue to struggle to meet their basic needs, and reveals the new paradigm that can solve this longstanding problem. Inside, you’ll learn why inducing growth and development has been the conventional response to urban financial struggles—and why it just doesn’t work. New development and high-risk investing don’t generate enough wealth to support itself, and cities continue to struggle. Read this book to find out how cities large and small can focus on bottom-up investments to minimize risk and maximize their ability to strengthen the community financially and improve citizens’ quality of life. Develop in-depth knowledge of the underlying logic behind the “traditional” search for never-ending urban growth Learn practical solutions for ameliorating financial struggles through low-risk investment and a grassroots focus Gain insights and tools that can stop the vicious cycle of budget shortfalls and unexpected downturns Become a part of the Strong Towns revolution by shifting the focus away from top-down growth toward rebuilding American prosperity Strong Towns acknowledges that there is a problem with the American approach to growth and shows community leaders a new way forward. The Strong Towns response is a revolution in how we assemble the places we live.

Book Description
Roti, Kapada & Makaan Our very own Indian Dream falls short of its credibility in today’s world where people spend incredible amount and time on temporary investments like food and fashion but have zero information and knowledge about land. In the Indian scenario, every other sector has websites, advertising segments and crores spent on updating the trends in fashion, vehicles and consumer goods, but so little is said and done about the real estate sector. In reality, the truth is that every business and literally the whole world works on the financial viability of land/property. People have always been intimidated by land and the intricate yet simple intelligence that is required to be an owner of a property. This book aims to bridge the gap between the common man and the extensive knowledge available on the internet and in reality. There are no wise investments, only wise people who arm themselves with ample knowledge and push ahead by hard work. These people take success and failure as two sides of a coin and forge pathways towards building a legacy of their own. Your journey starts here! My journey through the concrete jungle of realty for the past three decades has provided me with the knowledge that ‘people dictate progress,’ not vice versa. Invest in land, and it will definitely take care of you. The most reliable and dependable part of humanity is the land we stand on. Invest in it, nurture it and make it an asset for the generations to come. Lion .Dr Kiron (Builder, Businessman, Philanthropist & Globetrotter) www.earthshasthra.com
