The Brilliant Thoughts and Strategies of George W. Bush: From Diapers to Rashes
This book is the perfect gift for anyone who enjoys a little criticism of President George W. Bush. Although the author's introduction and faux-critical reviews are true frown flippers, his true political statement is not in what he writes, but in what is not written. The chapter titles are uproariously entertaining, and since each one is devoted to all President G.W. Bush's brilliant thoughts and presidential works, the reader will find nothing but blank pages following the heading. A great statement to rest on one's coffee table!

The City as a Terminal
The on-time delivery of goods is regarded as a primary factor of the urban economy and is being monitored by businesses and government alike. However, much analysis of freight transportation and the flow of goods into, out of and within urban areas focuses on functional, business-related approaches. This book examines the interrelationship between logistics development on one hand and urban development and geographical issues, such as land use and location, on the other. Avoiding certain one-dimensional views on 'logistics impacts on the city', it discloses the complex interaction of the logistics system with the entire urban environment. It also bridges the gap between recent geographical research into new production systems and (post)modern consumption patterns. Illustrated with case studies from the United States, Germany, France, The Netherlands and the United Kingdom, it examines issues such as: the historical nexus between urban areas and logistics; current urban developments with regards to goods distribution; city-region related characteristics of freight flows; locational dynamics; and specific freight related urban problems and conflicts.
