What's Making Our Children Sick?

Exploring the links between GM foods, glyphosate, and gut health With chronic disorders among American children reaching epidemic levels, hundreds of thousands of parents are desperately seeking solutions to their children's declining health, often with little medical guidance from the experts.

No. Most chronic health disorders have multiple causes and require careful disentanglement and complex treatments. But what if toxicants in our foods are a major culprit, one that, if corrected, could lead to tangible res...

How to make city cycling--the most sustainable form of urban transportation--safe, practical, and convenient for all cyclists. Cycling is the most sustainable mode of urban transportation, practical for most short- and medium-distance trips--commuting to and from work or school, shopping, visiting friends, going to the doctor's office. It's good for your health, spares the environment a trip's worth of auto emissions, and is economical for both public and personal budgets. Cycling, with all its benefits, should not be reserved for the fit, the spandex-clad, and the daring. Cycling for Sustainable Cities shows how to make city cycling safe, practical, and convenient for all cyclists.

Cohesion as an Overall Value of the European Union

Europe faces major economic, social and environmental challenges. It also has great potential to improve living conditions in all places and for all people (Territorial Agenda, 2020). Still in many regards Europe faces increasing imbalances and inequalities which drive people and territories apart and risk undermining future development perspectives. This is despite economic, social and territorial cohesion and solidarity being an aim of the Treaty on the European Union (Article 3, TEU); and despite the EU having the world's most extensive development policy - EU Cohesion Policy. Cohesion along with the reduction of imbalances and inequalities in Europe cannot be addressed by one policy field single handed. It has to be a joint effort and aim of all EU policies. This report provides the first sectoral analysis of cohesion as an overall value and objective of the EU by assessing the 'Cohesion Spirit' of EU policies, i.e. how they reflect cohesion as a European value.

Metropolitan Research

Metropolitan research requires multidisciplinary perspectives in order to do justice to the complexities of metropolitan regions. This volume provides a scholarly and accessible overview of key methods and approaches in metropolitan research from a uniquely broad range of disciplines including architectural history, art history, heritage conservation, literary and cultural studies, spatial planning and planning theory, geoinformatics, urban sociology, economic geography, operations research, technology studies, transport planning, aquatic ecosystems research and urban epidemiology. It is this scope of disciplinary - and increasingly also interdisciplinary - approaches that allows metropolitan research to address recent societal challenges of urban life, such as mobility, health, diversity or sustainability.
