Broke and Broken
In 1889 a gold rush broke out on the Witwatersrand, changing South Africa's history forever. More than 130 years later the mining industry is still one of the biggest drivers of the economy, but at the expense of those who work underground. Broke & Broken is the story of the thousands of men from South Africa and beyond its borders who paid with their lives for generations. These are men who left their homes as healthy, ambitious youngsters and returned broke, broken and bitter; victims of the shameful legacy of gold mining. The book seeks to say the names of the mineworkers who have built this country's economy, because their own stories and their own spirits need to be magnified. The precious stone they spent most of their lives digging brought no shine to their lives - only pain, tears and death.
Convention Center Follies
American cities have experienced a remarkable surge in convention center development over the last two decades, with exhibit hall space growing from 40 million square feet in 1990 to 70 million in 2011—an increase of almost 75 percent.

Why, then, do cities keep building them? Written by one of the nation's foremost urban development experts, Convention Center Follies exposes the forces behind convention center development an...
The Chronicles of Dr. Ann Bennet: The Last Day Of Normal Life
We find Dr. Bennett standing at a window, staring down the city parkway. Dr. Bennett is reminiscing about her early years growing up in the area she calls home. The sights, sounds and smells of the world she has known, is about to end! Dr. Bennett has devoted decades of preparation for moving the best of what mankind has to offer to somewhere other than earth, not just scientists like herself, but musicians, artisans and people from all walks of life, that excel at what they do. Dr. Bennett was selected by the committee, to design a way station, underground moon base and space station to begin the journeys for thousands of lifeforms. Dr. Bennett also designed the sky cities of earth, that were mounted high above earth's surface to protect as many forms of life as possible, to produce food, and supplies for those who would live in space. Since the 1950's a select group of trained scientists knew the Ice Age was approaching, preparations began then.
