Описание: How do you find the best university for the subject you wish to study? You need a guide that evaluates the quality of what is available, giving facts, figures and
comparative assessments of universities. Since 1992, "The Times" has produced the most widely respected and used university league tables. The Guide takes the key measures of
quality as its focus,
so you can make informed choices of university and subjects.
Still unique and still controversial, the rankings provide hard data, analysed, interpreted and presented by a
team of experts. The 2007 edition of the best-selling "Good University Guide" has been further extended, now offering: unique league table ranking to Britain's universities, which
enables readers to assess strengths and weaknesses of each university; over 60 tables giving the best universities for particular subjects; advice on how to select a course and a
university; details of government changes to higher education; guidance on how to apply and pay your way through university; advice on finding and paying for accommodation while
you are there; two pages of information on each university; detailed coverage of Oxford and Cambridge colleges; and information specifically designed for international students.

Описание: The photos in this book cover many aspects of what constitutes and gives New York City its unique character. The book starts with photos of some bridges (the Manhattan, the George Washington) shown from less familiar vantage points. Pictures of well-known buildings like the Hearst Tower are followed by lesser known ones, such as the Decker Building at Union Square, a Roman Catholic Church on First Avenue and Sixty-Sixth Street, the Montauk Club in Brooklyn. Next are photos of New Yorkers at work, play, and leisure: making pizza, glass blowing, in-line skating, exercising, making music, attending a Gay Pride Parade, etc. Some temporary outdoor sculpture exhibits and some permanent sculpture, such as a memorial to a Titanic victim and the beautiful sand sculpture in a Manhattan playground follow. Pictures of people at parades, the Macys, the St. Patricks Day, and the Hispanic Day are also shown. A large number of original wall murals (graffiti), many of which have since disappeared in the last twenty years as the city rebuilds itself, are included. A striking picture of the Twin Towers on fire, as well as some winter pictures, are also presented. The book concludes with a section of photos of the New York Subway system: stained glass windows, ceramic mosaics, and shots taken inside the subway cars. New York City is so large and diverse that one could make several books of photos like this and not repeat any of the photographs. " Bernie, a lifelong New Yorker has curated and published a selection of his photographs late in life, which in itself I find to be significant and moving thing to do. These images represent his view of the world around him over the course of decades; a love letter to the city and its inhabitants." - Gregory Crewdson Chairperson of the Photography Dept., Yale

Описание: This is for reflective practitioners, for people wishing to inquire into what is involved in thinking "in the moment" when encountering unique, "first-time" events. It is also about complexity considered as a third realm of mysterious events subsisting between those we call problems which we can solve by rational thought, and those we call ineffable which we cannot at all describe in words
Автор: Lora Eduardo, Powell Andrew, Van Praag Bernard Название: The Quality of Life in Latin American Cities ISBN: 0821378376 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780821378373 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Цена: 25080.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: A growing number of cities around the world have established systems for monitoring the quality of urban life. Many of those systems combine objective information with subjective opinions and cover a wide variety of topics. This book assesses a method that takes advantage of both types of information and offers criteria to identify and rank the issues of potential importance for urban dwellers. This method--which combines the so-called 'hedonic price' and 'life satisfaction' approaches to value public goods--was tested in pilot studies in six Latin American cities: Bogota, Buenos Aires, Lima, Medellin, Montevideo, and San Jose of Costa Rica. It provides valuable insights to address key questions such as, - Which urban problems have the greatest impact on people's opinions of city management and the most widespread effects on their lives? - Do gaps between perception and reality vary from one area of the city to another, especially between high- and low-income neighborhoods? - Where can homebuilders most feasibly seek solutions to problems such as inadequate road infrastructure, a lack of recreational areas, or poor safety conditions? - Which problems should government authorities address first, in light of their impact on the well-being of various groups of individuals and given private actors' abilities to respond? - Which homeowners benefit the most from public infrastructure or services? - When can or should property taxes be used to finance the provision of certain services--or the solution of certain problems? 'The Quality of Life in Latin American Cities: Markets and Perception' proposes a monitoring system that is easy to operate and that entails reasonable costs but also has a solid conceptual basis. Long the ideal of many scholars and practitioners, such a system may soon become a reality and have the potential to make a significant contribution to the decision-making processes in any city concerned with the well-being of its residents.
