Now, designers are creating cutting-edge green roofs that focus not only on critical environmental issue like heat, storm management, and ecosystem development, but also on the aesthetics, offering beautiful, livable, sustainable landscapes. The Professional Design Guide to Green Roofs is a comprehensive exploration of rooftop garden design and the process behind it. It covers everything landscape architects and garden designers need to know to create a beautiful garden in the sky. With lush photography, international examples, and solid how-to information, this is an essential resource for all design professionals.

In 1983 Susanna Dakin emerged from the sea having been "tested by the waters" for her candidacy as An Artist for President. A seminal performance art piece, it took Dakin from the art studio to the bully pulpit as she set out to prove that the nation is an artwork and we the people are the artists. This insightful, and at times, humorous autobiography of the campaign travels with Dakin across the country. Along the way she discovers the challenges of politics and a country hungry for change.

Fallen Star (Dragons vs Wolves #1)

The ancient war between dragons and wolves is about to begin again. As a young wolf learning to hunt, Rana is teased for being a daydreamer, while Fenn, her brother, is seen as a cheeky show-off. But when Rana survives a perilous encounter with a fire-breathing dragon, she is made spokeswolf for the pack. And Fenn’s claim that he can sense danger suddenly doesn’t seem so wild. Only Rana and Fenn stand against the dragon’s charm and magical power. And the wolves’ whole world is at stake.
