Wood Architecture
Timber is having a renaissance as an architectural material, as more architects come to understand its properties, and enjoy adding it to their repertoire of materials. With a growing crop of good new timber buildings, architects are coming to realise that this is no longer the sole preserve of the traditionalist, but a material that has an important role to play in the contemporary world. The book's introduction examines the ways in which a raw material of diminishing quality (but abundant quantity) can be 'stretched' to perform as it has never done before using new technology and careful detailing. The 40 case studies are devoted to some of the most interesting new wood projects from around the world. The projects are grouped in seven themed chapters. Featured architects from around the world include Steven Holl, Foster and Partners, Rural Studio, Renzo Piano and Shigeru Ban.

Geriatric Assessment
Some decades ago, comprehensive geriatric assessment was referred to as the “new technology of geriatrics”, as research indicated many benefits of building models of care on assessment systems. Since those times, assessment-care technologies have proliferated, and in many countries have become reference standards. Work, however, continues to extend and expand geriatric assessment programs, as represented in the contents of this book.
