Spatial Planning Matters!
As a result of the series of four research and debate symposia convened by ETH Zurich members with international academics and practitioners in the field of spatial planning, this book revolves around 'inspiring stories' that describe a wide variety of spatial problems as well as the planning mechanisms used to address these; in addition, 'fundamental topics' are provided to facilitate the understanding of certain planning processes illustrated by the practical cases.There are two main reasons behind choosing this method to introduce spatial planning. Firstly, the spatial planning profession is facing a great crisis. Experts are confronted with a quantum leap in the availability of informati...

Psychology Library Editions: Child Development (20 Volume set) brings together a diverse number of titles across many areas of developmental psychology, from children’s play to language development.

Das Limmattal
Das Limmattal und seine Entwicklung gilt landesweit als Inbegriff des ungebremsten Wachstums und Vorreiter vieler nationaler Projekte: Autobahnen, Shoppingcenter, Hochhaussiedlungen. Das Tal mit Baden als unabhängigem Zentrum hat aber auch eine eigenartige verfassungspolitische Vergangenheit: Im Grunde Vorfeld von Zürich, war es bis 1798 Teil der eidgenössischen Herrschaft der Grafschaft Baden, bis an die Stadtgrenze von Zürich beherrscht vom Kloster Wettingen. Reformation, Helvetische Revolution und die Gründung des Aargaus brachten eine völlig neue Situation. Das starke Wachstum von Zürich seit der Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts veränderte die Grössenverhältnisse schliesslich komplett. Das Limmattaler Autorenteam beleuchtet Geschichte und Gegenwart dieser besonderen Region anhand von Themen wie Natur, Wirtschaft, Siedlung, Verkehr und Kultur. Ein engagierter, frischer Blick auf den Lebensraum von Zehntausenden von Menschen, die gerne hier leben und die Vorteile von Stadt- und Naturnähe schätzen.
Child-Care and the Psychology of Development
Are child-care centres good for children? How can we provide good day-care? Feminists have long argued for the provision of day-care facilities so that mothers may be free to work outside the home. The call had enjoyed little support from politicians and experts, however. Feminists had been seen to stand for women’s interests, and psychologists and pedagogues for children’s – as if the two were opposed. Only in the early 1990s had the opinions of politicians and experts begun to change. Yet, even so, a positive policy on day-care was still lacking. Originally published in 1992, Elly Singer’s exciting book shed a fresh and critical light on its subject. She exposes the preoccupations and contradictions of mainstream developmental psychology and its experts, shows how their theories blind them to many important questions, and reveals the almost total denial by mainstream psychology of the daily realities of parents and their children at the time. Elly Singer then proposes fresh ways of thinking to meet the new and different circumstances in which children and parents find themselves in contemporary society.
