Confort en el litorial costero
El estudio del confort de las circulaciones peatonales en los litorales costeros es un tema de vital importancia, donde el viandante tiene el contacto con la naturaleza, se puede relajar y disfrutar el aire libre. Este libro presenta la evolución histórica de las sendas a través del tiempo, nos proporciona los pasos a seguir para estudiar bioclimáticamente los elementos que la componen en un clima templado como el de Barcelona; selecciona las tipologías y las caracteriza de acuerdo a sus límites verticales y horizontales; describe como el viento, la radiación solar, la humedad y la vegetación influyen en el confort del peatón.
Revitalización urbana. Aportaciones para la ciudad vertical
El proceso global de urbanización, al que no escapan las ciudades mexicanas, se manifiesta en una ciudad dispersa y con disfunciones. El aumento de la movilidad ha generado el distanciamiento y fragmentación en la ciudad, al separar usos de suelo habitacional, comercial e industrial. En consecuencia, el enfoque sobre la Revitalización Urbana presenta una correcta asociación entre la ciudad vertical, y el éxito del espacio público, donde la viabilidad económica se asocia con importantes ventajas sociales y ambientales. La Laguna del Carpintero, ubicada en el corazón del área metropolitana de Tampico.
Sostenibilidad y plusvalia
¿De qué manera es posible producir un proyecto imaginando el futuro, un futuro mejor? Imitando los mismos patrones de diseño, calcando normativas complejas, repitiendo formas foráneas no consiguen una mejor ciudad. La ciudad mexicana contemporánea ya tiene muchos volúmenes de estudios, interesantes y precisos diagnósticos, pero si no es con un proyecto urbano-arquitectónico con argumentos audaces y sólidos, así como mecanismos para hacer viable la transformación, difícilmente cambiará para mejor. La energía barata del petróleo erigió al automóvil como patrón de la ciudad funcional, en los últimos decenios, la conciencia ecológica busca nuevos valores en los ámbitos urbanos, más compatibles con la sostenibilidad. No es posible entonces imaginar la ciudad del siglo XXI con soluciones del siglo XX, por tanto, concebir una ciudad diferente requiere repensar un proyecto diferente.

Two Stories
Fiction. Translated by Jessica Sequera. The writing of the late Osvaldo Lamborghini (1940--1985) resists almost any attempt to characterize, let alone summarize. An iconoclastic figure of the Latin American literary milieu of the mid-to-late twentieth century, Lamborghini melded the baroque and the low-brow to often outrageous effect (Bolaño said he could only read a few pages of him at once). Rendered into English for the first time here are two long short stories, The Morning and Just Write Anything!, an accurate sample of his work in much the same way that a bucket of seawater is an accurate sample of the ocean.

Theories and Models of Urbanization
This book provides a thorough discussion about fundamental questions regarding urban theories and modeling. It is a curated collection of contributions to a workshop held in Paris on October 12th and 13th 2017 at the Institute of Complex Systems by the team of ERC GeoDiverCity. There are several chapters conveying the answers given by single authors to problems of conceptualization and modeling and others in which scholars reply to their conception and question them. Even, the chapters transcribing keynote presentations were rewritten according to contributions from the respective discussions. The result is a complete “state of the art” of what is our knowledge about urban processes and their possible formalization.
