Public Space and an Interdisciplinary Approach to Design
The crisis of contemporary public space is a question of interest to all architects. The economic, social and cultural crisis, in particular affecting the entire European continent, is clearly and originally reflected in the public spaces of our cities, more and more of which are now considered “heritage”. Public space and the public realm, due to their original facets, are once again a theme of interest for architects, but also for philosophers, sociologist and anthropologists (J. Habermas, D. Innerarity, Z. Bauman, M. Augé), as complex “spaces” to be decomposed. Hence, a few questions: Does the analysis of public space and an approach to design, in a reality that considers a different concept of “public” than that of the pat century comport a new way of looking? A new urban-architectural nomenclature? An interdisciplinary approach to design? The general situation described in this publication, in various authors from different disciplinary backgrounds, clearly expresses the tangible need to provide (or provide once again) positive responses to different questions before proceeding with the design – or analysis – of contemporary public space.
Progress in Catheter Ablation
Catheter ablation is widely accepted as an effective and safe form of therapy for cardiac arrhythmia. In many instances this curative procedure is considered as the first line of therapy if not the ultimate treatment of choice. With the use of radiofrequency (RF) modality; which has revolutionized the technology from a barotraumatic, potentially injurious procedure using high voltage, direct-current (DC) shock to a safe and relatively painless one; catheter ablation procedure now carries a very low risk and is extremely effective for certain types of arrhythmia. Its efficacy rate in curing supraventricular tachycardia involving an accessory pathway or dual atrioventricular nodal pathways has...
Putting Tradition into Practice: Heritage, Place and Design
This book gathers more than 150 peer-reviewed papers presented at the 5th INTBAU International Annual Event, held in Milan, Italy, in July 2017. The book represents an invaluable and up-to-date international exchange of research, case studies and best practice to confront the challenges of designing places, building cultural landscapes and enabling the development of communities. The papers investigate methodologies of representation, communication and valorization of historic urban landscapes and cultural heritage, monitoring conservation management, cultural issues in heritage assessment, placemaking and local identity enhancement, as well as reconstruction of settlements affected by disasters. With contributions from leading experts, including university researchers, professionals and policy makers, the book addresses all who seek to understand and address the challenges faced in the protection and enhancement of the heritage that has been created.

Spazio pubblico e approccio interdisciplinare al progetto
La crisi dello spazio pubblico nel nostro tempo è una questione che ci riguarda da vicino tutti. La crisi economica, sociale e culturale, che attraversa in particolar modo il Vecchio Continente, si riflette con evidenza e originalità sullo spazio pubblico delle nostre città, con queste ultime sempre più “patrimonio”. Spazio e sfera pubblica, per le loro originali sfaccettature, tornano oggi temi d’interesse di architetti ma anche di filosofi, sociologi e antropologi (Habermas, Innerarity, Bauman, Augé), in quanto “luoghi” complessi da scomporre. Dunque, alcune interpellanze, proprie della call, poste agli autori per affrontare il tema di questo volume: analizzare oggi lo spazio pubblico e affrontare il tema progettuale, in una attualità che vede il concetto di “pubblico” variato rispetto al secolo scorso, comporta un nuovo sguardo? Una nuova nomenclatura urbano-architettonica? Un approccio interdisciplinare al progetto? Il quadro che qui emerge appare abbastanza chiaro rispetto alla concreta necessità oggi di mettere in campo risposte affermative alle questioni poste, prima di occuparsi del progetto (o dell’analisi) dello spazio pubblico contemporaneo.
