In From the Ground Up: Local Efforts to Create Resilient Cities, design expert Alison Sant focuses on the unique ways in which US cities are working to mitigate and adapt to climate change while creating equitable and livable communities. Sant presents 12 case studies, drawn from research and over 90 interviews with people who are working in these communities to make a difference. These efforts show how US cities are reclaiming their streets from cars, restoring watersheds, growing forests, and adapting shorelines to improve people's lives while addressing our changing climate. From the Ground Up is a call to action. When we make the places we live more climate resilient, we need to acknowledge and address the history of social and racial injustice. Advocates, non-profit organizations, community-based groups, and government officials will find examples of how to build alliances to support and embolden this vision together.

What would the U.S. government do if they actually caught the Devil? Where would they keep him? What would they do with him? If they used him, what would the cost be? In an abandoned nuclear submarine buried beneath the Greenland ice shelf, the National Security Agency’s new Information Assurance Technical Director, Ray Peterson, is revealed the greatest secret the U.S. government has ever kept. Daniel Edgar Vincent Ivan Liberty, codenamed Devil, has an intellect so vast, there is no puzzle he can't solve, no computer system too complex to create or control, and the thing he enjoys most is manipulating the fleeting lives of human beings. Devil surrendered to the U.S. government of his own free will, only requesting that he be kept alive in a prison of his design near the Arctic Circle in exchange for his gifts to be utilized exclusively for America….and for a terrible price that Ray will soon horrifyingly discover!

A group of young Animal Liberation Front activists perform a raid on an animal testing lab outside of Ventura, California, not knowing that the facility, Caladine, is a secret government testing ground for bio-engineered fighting hybrids. One of the few to survive the bloodbath, now confined to a psychiatric institution, tells the tale of that night to a gifted psychologist, whose expertise lies within schizophrenic disorders. Where all have failed, she must succeed in unlocking the truth of what happened during a night hidden away in bloodshed and carnage. But, neither the doctor nor the patient realize a far more sinister truth awaits; a truth which says they are being manipulated by the scheming head of the ward, a man who keeps patients as playthings in a basement asylum. By the time they find out these motives of monsters, it is too late for the both of them. A tale of madness becomes their reality. In the end -- to hunt the world's most horrific evil, you'll need to keep your eyes open and look within.
