Cities and the Creative Class
ISBN: 9780415948876 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 198 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In the seven essays of Cities and the Creative Class - four of which have been previously published - Richard Florida outlines how certain cities succeed in attracting members of the creative class.

They don't do this through the traditional strategies of tax incentives, suburban housing developments, and loose regulation,...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) A journalist once famously remarked that it is only possible to fall in love with one war, but do cold wars count, and how does it play out if many are too young, or too much time has passed, to really remember? What began with the intention of four good friends to meet for a quiet short gathering at one's remote retreat quickly became anything but, with a 'we're not leaving until' mentality, if by default. Four grew to nine as the far-fetched concept of tenderfoots forming a band transitioned toward a geopolitical food fight, in which neither hill-climbing trekkies nor Harringay Ladder...

In Body Consciousness, Richard Shusterman refutes such charges by...
