The Broken Apple New York City in the 1980's

The Broken Apple New York City in the 1980's

On the brink of bankruptcy in the 1970s New York City has been restored as a center of economic and cultural vitality in the 1980s. But it has also become an increasingly brutal place where incivility reigns drugs lace the streets and crime is so pervasive that most New Yorkers now consider it a permanent fixture like gray skies and impossible traffic. What is it that continues to draw people to this city of contradictions?Born and educated in New York Herbert London knows this city of dreams as few do. The Broken Apple is based on his keen observations of New York's social political and cultural life over the critical decade of the 1980s. London examines the city's continuing failures including a city administration unable to meet the most basic citizen needs or to assure safety and security. He sees schools that have become mean-spirited with teachers unable to teach administrators unable to maintain order and students unable to learn. He describes the new slaves of New York as those in search of a place to live in a city where housing is in shorter supply than in any other major city in the nation. London asks why despite all this everything is bigger than life in New York and finds the answer in New York's role as the nation's communications hub and the measuring rod by which other cities are judged. London writes with knowledgeable affection about this very special place where the mundane is freely converted into the metaphorical. His book is an excursion a guide to what is good what is bad and what is awful in the city. It is a montage of the years of Mayor Koch the period many have described as the city's fin de siecle. But it is also a perscriptive book pointing out what can be done in practical ways to improve life. The Broken Apple will be of interest to urban specialists as well as those for whom New York is an aspiration or a reality. Like the city itself the book has something for everyone from visions of political corruption to acts of redemption. Above all it captures the pulsating rhythm of this unique city | The Broken Apple New York City in the 1980's

Air Traffic Management Principles Performance Markets

Air Traffic Management Principles Performance Markets

This book addresses each of the Air Navigation Services' five broad categories of services provided to air traffic during all phases of operation: air traffic management (ATM) communication navigation and surveillance services (CNS) meteorological services for air navigation (MET) aeronautical information services (AIS) and search and rescue (SAR). This book is designed for working professionals in Air Transport Management but also undergraduate and postgraduate students studying air transport management and aeronautical engineering. It will also be very helpful for the training of air traffic control officers (ATCOs). The book does not require any prior (specialist) knowledge as it is an introduction to air navigation service provider (ANSP) business. There is very little literature available that gives a detailed appreciation of the complexities potential risks and issues associated with the provision of air navigation services. The role of this book is to fill this significant gap with a comprehensive in-depth study of the management principles related to ANSPs. This is particularly timely given recent ATC developments in Europe USA and New Zealand. Airlines and airports rely on the ANSPs for the management of air traffic. Hence air navigation services (ANS) provision is considered as a core element for air transportation. | Air Traffic Management Principles Performance Markets

The Birth of Independent Air Power British Air Policy in the First World War

The Birth of Independent Air Power British Air Policy in the First World War

In forming the Royal Air Force on 1 April 1918 Britain created the world’s first independent air service. Britain entered the First World War with less than 200 ill-assorted flying machines divided between the army and the navy but by the end of the war the RAF mustered almost 300 000 personnel and 22 000 aircraft. Originally published in 1986 more than 65 years after the event the decision to form the RAF remained poorly understood and Malcolm Cooper presented the first detailed modern analysis of its creation shedding new light on the process by which Britain entered the air age. Set against the background of the build-up of air power during the First World War the book explains how deepening political concern at failures in home air defence public demands for retaliatory air action against Germany problems of mobilization and expansion in the aircraft industry and disagreements between the existing army and navy air services combined to create the conditions for an independent air force. The author argues that the pressures of war were insufficient to give real substance to the RAF’s independence and that its failure to escape from its wartime role as an ancillary service was also of crucial significance in the evolution of British air strategy in later years. Based on an extensive study of official documents and private papers and amply illustrated with contemporary photographs this title will prove invaluable in understanding both strategic thinking in the Great War and the early development of a form of warfare which dominated military and naval operations in the twentieth century. | The Birth of Independent Air Power British Air Policy in the First World War

Disruptive Leadership Apple and the Technology of Caring Deeply-Nine Keys to Organizational Excellence and Global Impact

Disruptive Leadership Apple and the Technology of Caring Deeply-Nine Keys to Organizational Excellence and Global Impact

Disruptive leadership is a topic generating intense interest. Companies all over the world are trying to upend their industry through innovative products and services. Becoming a disruptive organization however is easier said than done. Even more difficult is being a company that continually disrupts. Is it possible to discern a code for how companies can achieve this? In this highly readable and engaging book a disruptive leadership framework is proposed in which caring deeply is placed at the center of the model. By turning care into a focal point a triphasic model is proposed that moves from the personal sphere (individual) to the corporate arena (organizational) and then to the global stage (impact). Nine keys are identified along this path for how companies can realize organizational excellence. While care may seem like a soft concept in the rough and tumble world of business it is argued how it is actually an inspired manner for providing direction structure and know-how that leads to powerful outcomes. Apple is profiled as a leading example of leveraging what is termed the technology of caring deeply. Other companies such as Nike IKEA Zappos Starbucks are also profiled. Finally a leadership canvas is provided to help activate the lessons shared in the book. | Disruptive Leadership Apple and the Technology of Caring Deeply-Nine Keys to Organizational Excellence and Global Impact

Air Pollution and Climate Change The Basics

Air Pollution and Climate Change The Basics

This book identifies four key forms of air pollution: indoor urban regional and global. It discusses how these four types of pollution are manifest in today’s society and examines the scientific and policy challenges that stand in the way of progress. Written in a style that balances scientific underpinnings with accessible language Pearson and Derwent examine the sources and historical context of air pollutants before dedicating a chapter to each of the key forms. Armed with these basics they begin to address the challenges faced by improving indoor urban and regional air quality whilst reducing global warming in the years ahead. This leads to a greater understanding of the challenges of global climate change with new proposals for reducing global warming. However the authors conclude that it is only when we have a scenario of reforestation combined with reductions in emissions of all greenhouse gases that real progress will be made in the fight against climate change. Then air pollution will also be consigned to history. With a foreword written by Professor James Lovelock this book will be of great interest to students and scholars of climate change and environmental policy as well as air quality professionals working in this important field. | Air Pollution and Climate Change The Basics
