La visita al edificio Torres Blancas pareceria obligada en un paseo arquitectonico por la ciudad de Madrid. Lo es tambien si pensamos en un recorrido conceptual por la Arquitectura espan~ola surgida tras el Movimiento Moderno. La aspiracion de la decada que transcurre desde 1960 a 1970, resumida en esta torre como ciudad-jardin vertical, se enfrenta en parte a una doble dificultad, acceso a escritos recientes sobre el edificio y a la contradiccion de encontrar problemas a la hora de visitar las viviendas, lo privado, en esta ciudad-vertical. El nombre de Torres Blancas incluye dentro de si la condicion de pluralidad, entre otras muchas, en su complejidad. Desarrollaremos en este libro, las vicisitudes que encuentra el joven arquitecto navarro Saenz de Oiza (1918-2000) para construir lo que pudieron ser casi tres torres en sus inicios, dos en un desarrollo posterior y una en su construccion final. Pero la verdadera condicion plural la encontraremos en el entendimiento de la torre, Torre

A spectacular global survey of the new buildings merging architecture and nature to transform our cities for a sustainable future. Concrete horizons, urban sprawl, high-density living: never have our cities and their buildings been in greater need of greening. Yet what’s required is more than an occasional vertical garden or living roof. Featuring seventy projects from around the world – some built, some ongoing, some from the future – Garden City looks at the increasingly inventive ways in which architects and designers are incorporating nature into the built environment, transforming the city for the benefit of all. From office buildings that incorporate urban farms and exchange the CO2 produced by humans for food and oxygen produced by plants, to lightweight systems for growing gardens on vertical surfaces; from ‘tree houses’ the size of city blocks to civic buildings that are ‘plugged into’ existing water-management systems – there are rich and often unexpected ideas for every inquiring designer. The future of our urban architecture is biologically alert, naturally self-sustaining and alive. Garden City is this future’s first manifesto.

Discover the Infinite Possibilities of the "Vertical Dimension" of Existence Eckhart Tolle has long taught a curious truth: You’re not your possessions. You’re not your career. You’re not the events of your life. You’re not even the contents of your mind. So, who are you? With The Journey into Yourself, this beloved teacher invites you to join him on an odyssey beyond the "horizontal dimension" of thought and into an aspect of our lives that most of us overlook: the "vertical dimension" beyond the reach of the mind. According to Eckhart, the vertical dimension might be better known as the present moment or the Now—all that ever really is. And that includes you—the real you. Recorded before a live audience at the Omega Institute in Rhinebeck, New York, The Journey into Yourself presents a rarely heard talk from early in Eckhart’s teaching career. Here you will encounter more than eight hours of practical, provocative, and occasionally hilarious teachings for awakening to who we are beyond the physical. Highlights Why the phrase "life is a dream" is more accurate than you might expect • Piercing the veil of self-made suffering • The gentle and fierce aspects of embodied Presence • Why setbacks and discomfort are the most potent teachers • Wisdom teachings from Buddhism, Christianity, and Hindu traditions that point to the embodiment of Presence • Why right action can only arise from surrender to the moment With The Journey into Yourself, Eckhart encourages you to step into the space between thoughts and discover the joyous treasures that lie within.

What makes Crans-Montana so unique is not only its panorama, its year-round sunshine, the fantastic run from the glacier on Plaine Morte all the way down a 6,000 foot vertical drop to the village, but its spectacularly scenic golf courses where the ball travels much further because of the high altitude. But insiders know there is more to Crans-Montana than just the high plateau. It comprises medieval villages and families like the Barras and Bonvin that go back to the 13th and 14th century respectively. There is also the tradition of vertical living through seasonal migration, from the vineyards near the Rhone to the Alpine meadows and in-between. Above all, it is about the people. This new book from Farrol Kahn gives you an insight to the people and places of Crans-Montana, known for its openness to accept all-comers. In a research programme on air pollution, the Swiss Federal government found that the cleanest air in the country was in Crans-Montana.

When people hear the word “migration,” they think of animals that move from a feeding area to a breeding area and back each year. But the greatest migration on Earth happens twice every night. The movement is largely vertical and performed by plankton followed by predatory fish, squid, octopus and other species that have acquired a taste for plankton. The migration starts deep in the waters of the ocean at sunset. As they move, the plankton nibble on plant plankton and other tasty morsels in the water and, eventually, some on each other. The feeding ends just before dawn when the plankton retreat to the depths of the ocean to hide during the day until the next evening, when they migrate back up the water column. In Planktonia, Erich Hoyt invites readers to dive into the dazzling nighttime ocean. Countless microscopic plankton — larval creatures such as ornate ghost pipefish, left-handed hermit crabs and bony-eared assfish — ascend to the upper waters to feed, returning to the depths before sunrise. These tiny planktonic creatures are delicate and beautiful; some look terrifying; and most look nothing like the creatures they will become as adults. This great vertical migration attracts larger adult creatures, too, from the solitary 6-inch (15 cm) bigfin reef squid and the fierce and hungry 6½ foot (2 m) female blanket octopus, which is up to 40,000 times heavier than her male mate. Everyone comes here for the midnight feast, and they are all ravenously hungry. Chapters in this book include: Hawai’i: From Bluewater to Blackwater; Awesome Anilao; The Gulf Stream Procession of Life; Blackwater White Sea; Precious Life of Plankton; Blackwater Unlimited; From Blackwater Passion to Protection. All life in the ocean depends on plankton. Plankton plays a key role in sequestering carbon against climate change. The great nightly vertical migration highlights the importance of protecting not only ocean species but also ecosystems that embrace ocean processes from the depths of the sea to surface waters.

There is a lot of talk about the new paradigm or model of thinking needed for the 21st Century. But what actually is problematic about our current ones? When we look deeply into the underlying structures of our thinking for the past 6,000 years we see one all pervasive form; images of pyramids, of ladders, of vertical power relations frozen in time. This book explores the idea that the paradigm shift needed is essentially about the change from rigid vertical and hierarchical thinking to equalizing rhythmic thinking and being. Equalizing Rhythms are a kind of lay person's 'theory of everything'. This theory can be applied to almost anything from world politics to personal spiritual journeys. It can be seen as a philosophical frame work relevant to a wide range of situations from the bedroom to the office.The book shows us how to tune in to these rhythms in any given moment of time. We learn how to develop our deepest intuition to aid this process. But it also shows us how to work out with reason where equalizing is needed. It also describes ways in which people all over the world are already living in the flow of equalizing rhythms, from the green movement to rave culture.

This insightful book presents a legal and economic analysis of inter-firm cooperation through networks as an alternative to vertical integration. It examines comparatively various forms of collaboration, ranging from consortia to multiparty joint ventures and from franchising to dealerships.Collaboration among firms of different sizes helps to overcome numerous weaknesses of the modern western industrial systems. It permits the governing of vertical disintegration without increasing fragmentation and transaction costs and allows firms to benefit from resource complementarities, favoring division of labour. The contributing authors, primarily focusing on Europe and the US, address important ways in which legal systems provide a framework for inter-firm coordination. It is clear from the analysis that significant obstacles to collaboration still remain, and the authors call for legal reforms at European and Member States level. This book will prove to be invaluable to academics and law-makers from both economics and law disciplines who are interested in organizational innovation and competitiveness to increase efficiency and redistribute power along the supply chain.Contributors include: C. Aubert de Vincelles, F. Cafaggi, S. Clavel, F. Gomez, S. Grundmann, D. Scalera, S. Whittaker, A. Zazzaro

Verticality, architectural and social, is at the heart of Colson Whitehead's first novel that takes place in an unnamed high-rise city that combines twenty-first-century engineering feats with nineteenth-century pork-barrel politics. Elevators are the technological expression of the vertical ideal, and Lila Mae Watson, the city's first black female elevator inspector, is its embattled token of upward mobility.When Number Eleven of the newly completed Fanny Briggs Memorial Building goes into deadly free-fall just hours after Lila Mae has signed off on it, using the controversial 'Intuitionist' method of ascertaining elevator safety, both Intuitionists and Empiricists recognize the set-up, but may be willing to let Lila Mae take the fall in an election year.As Lila Mae strives to exonerate herself in this urgent adventure full of government spies, underworld hit men, and seductive double agents, behind the action, always, is the Idea. Lila Mae's quest is mysteriously entwined with existence of heretofore lost writings by James Fulton, father of Intuitionism, a giant of vertical thought. If she is able to find and reveal his plan for the perfect, next-generation elevator, the city as it now exists may instantly become obsolescent.
