City Hall is the first book to feature striking contemporary images of the most architecturally significant city halls in the United States. This diverse collection includes New York, the oldest; Philadelphia, once the tallest building in the world; and Boston, the first major brutalist building in the United States. Organized chronologically, the book traces the evolution of American civic architecture from the early 19th century to the present day and represents diverse styles such as Federalist, art deco, and modern.Architects, current and former mayors, historians, and preservationists tell the story of how each city hall came to be, what it says about its city, and why it's important architecturally. With a foreword by noted historian Douglas Brinkley and an essay by architectural writer Thomas Mellins, City Hall spotlights these often underappreciated civic buildings and affirms architecture's unique power to express democratic ideals and inspire civic engagement.

A rich reference section, including an extensive index, concludes the book.

The Perfect Score (The Perfect Score Series)The Perfect Secret (The Perfect Score Series)Perfect Star (The Perfect Score Series)From the beloved author of Because of Mr. Terupt and its sequels comes The Perfect Score, a new middle-grade school story with a very special cast of unforgettable characters who discover that getting the perfect score—both on the test and in life—is perhaps not so perfect after all. No one likes or wants to take the statewide assessment tests.

Monocle has always been a champion of taking it slow. It has encouraged readers to dive into a lake and go for a run. To sleep well. To eat food whose makers are proud of its provenance. In a shouty, jabbing-finger moment in history, it has done its bit to argue for a new modern etiquette to be generous with our time, hospitality and forgiveness. Now its editors and correspondents have brought all of this together in The Monocle Manifesto for a Gentler Life, a book that urges us all to slow down, reconnect, make good things and see nice places. And it also knows when to wear a cheeky smile. Chapters include:• An illustrated guide to being nice, respecting your neighbour and controlling your social media rants.• Profiles of the happiest nations – and the least lonely too.• How to build a house that’s good for you and your family.• Essays from leading thinkers and great writers on what we can gain if we shift gear.• The businesses charting a better course – from management to pride in pr

《金錢心理學》並非教你如何用數學公式致富，而是帶你深入理解「為何人們會這樣用錢」。作者摩根・豪澤以19篇精煉短文，揭示我們對金錢的直覺、恐懼、慾望與決策背後的心理機制。真正的財務智慧，不在於知識有多深，而是能否控制情緒與行為。在這本廣受好評的暢銷書中，你會發現投資與理財不是數學題，而是人性課。這本書適合所有想更好理解金錢與自己關係的讀者，幫你在混亂與不確定中，做出更聰明、更穩健的財務選擇。Doing well with money isn’t necessarily about what you know. It’s about how you behave. And behavior is hard to teach, even to really smart people.Money—investing, personal finance, and business decisions—is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don’t make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together.In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money and teaches you how to make better sense of one of life’s most important topics.
