Book Description
The legend of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors had disappeared into the river of history, and Tathagata's conspiracy gradually surfaced. The traitors were still in charge of the universe, and the Western Paradise Scripture group of four had mysteriously disappeared. The young man's tears and pains were the strongest taste in the world of chaos. And look at the strongest in the primal chaos, unravel one mystery after another, pass through all the illusions and illusions!

Book Description
Covering an exhaustive range of information about the five boroughs, the first edition of The Encyclopedia of New York City was a success by every measure, earning worldwide acclaim and several awards for reference excellence, and selling out its first printing before it was officially published. But much has changed since the volume first appeared in 1995: the World Trade Center no longer dominates the skyline, a billionaire businessman has become an unlikely three-term mayor, and urban regeneration—Chelsea Piers, the High Line, DUMBO, Williamsburg, the South Bronx, the Lower East Side—has become commonplace. To reflect such innovation and change, this definitive, one-volume resource on the city has been completely revised and expanded. The revised edition includes 800 new entries that help complete the story of New York: from Air Train to E-ZPass, from September 11 to public order. The new material includes broader coverage of subject areas previously underserved as well as new maps and illustrations. Virtually all existing entries—spanning architecture, politics, business, sports, the arts, and more—have been updated to reflect the impact of the past two decades. The more than 5,000 alphabetical entries and 700 illustrations of the second edition of The Encyclopedia of New York City convey the richness and diversity of its subject in great breadth and detail, and will continue to serve as an indispensable tool for everyone who has even a passing interest in the American metropolis.

Book Description
Shawn Wainwright's parents had lots of money and a well-kept secret. But Shawn didn't want to live off his parents' money because his parents were controlling parents. To prove he can make it without their help, Shawn sets out on his own. Like many young adults, after being away for several years, he longed to enjoy the comforts his parents offered. But once he arrived at his parents' home, he finds they are out of town on work. Thinking he has the house to himself with no worries, he relaxes next to his parents' large in-ground swimming pool in their backyard. What happened next changed his life. Strange-looking flying vehicles appeared out of nowhere above the treetops. These vehicles must be a military exercise! But no! The military would never assemble in such a formation, and the flashing lights were too bright. If these were not some new US military aircraft, they must be from a foreign country. A foreign government has somehow invaded the airspace of the greatest nation on the planet! But Shawn is wrong in his estimation. This military comes from another world!

Book Description
Cities are frequently viewed as passive participants to state and national efforts to solve the toughest urban problems. But the evidence suggests otherwise. Cities are actively devising innovative policy solutions and they have the potential to do even more. In this volume, the authors examine current threats to communities across the U.S. and the globe. They draw on first-hand experience with, and accounts of, the crises already precipitated by climate change, population shifts, and economic inequality. This volume is distinguished, however, by its central objective of traveling beyond a description of problems and a discussion of their serious implications. Each of the thirteen chapters frame specific recommendations and guidance on the range of core capacities and interventions that 21st Century cities would be prudent to consider in mapping their immediate and future responses to these critical problems. How Cities Will Save the World brings together authors with frontline experience in the fields of city redevelopment, urban infrastructure, healthcare, planning, immigration, historic preservation, and local government administration. They not only offer their ground level view of threats caused by climate change, population shifts, and economic inequality, but they provide solution-driven narratives identifying promising innovations to help cities tackle this century’s greatest adversities.
