Solving the World's Titanic Struggles Vol 1


Book Description

We're beset by problems, difficulties, and obstacles throughout the world created by man. Millions, suffer, millions cry for relief. Some are human made, some natural. They strike in a moment with catastrophic devastation, or are subtle and build up. The ones caused by men and women of all kinds however, stem from immaturity, greed, hunger for power or authority, egotism, criminal intent, lack of empathy, even soullessness. So it seems when we lose all jobs, livelihood, investments, friends, family to circumstances unfair and unwise, selfish or unkind. Nations invade other nations, despots jail and torture their own citizens, there seems we'll never "fix" this planet. But there are good people, the vast majority of us who only want freedom to speak, love, work, and build a secure society for all. To cooperate and share, and to eliminate threats like nuclear weapons holding death over all our heads. But 100 essays herein give hope and paths to genuine cooperation and peace, practical solutions, love for all colors, races, creeds, and religions.

Metropolitan Problems


Book Description

Metropolitan Problems is the end-product of one of the most dynamic research programmes of its kind ever conceived and executed. The book, which took three years to complete, represents the culmination of a two year study that was highlighted by a conference held in toronto in 1967. In the early 1960s, the bureau of Municipal Research (in metropolitan Toronto) decided that a significant way for it to celebrate Canada's centennial would be to initiate a systematic international study of the world's metropolitan areas. The study, with the official cooperation of the United Nations, was designed to produce positive insights into the methods of coping with the interlocking sets of problems associated with the expansion of the modern metropolis. Twelve papers on various aspects of metropolitan problems were commissioned from an international body of experts. Working with these experts were study groups drawn from forty major metropolitan centres throughout the world. After making exhaustive studies of their respective urban centres, the groups reported their findings and submitted detailed briefs through their representatives at the conference. Throughout the symposium, a conscious effort was made to examine single aspects of social, economic and physical change within the overall perspective of the metropolis. The book reflects this approach. Each chapter directs attention to specific problems of the metropolis, problems resulting from the contradiction between accelerating technology and our ability to cope with the incredible pace and rate of change. Together they prove that, despite differences in technology, culture, and political and social matters, the major urban areas of the world do have much in common. Emerging tendencies can be analysed and corrective and preventative measures be made through comparative analysis. This book was first published in 1970.
