Product Information
Cultural sustainability is a very important aspect of the overall sustainability framework and is regarded as the 'fourth pillar' alongside the other three: environmental, economic, and social sustainability. However, the concept is neither fully explored, nor widely accepted or recognized. This book elicits the interplay of 'nature-culture-architecture' and theorizes the concept of 'cultural sustainability' and 'culturally sustainable architecture.' It identifies four key themes in Chinese philosophy: Harmony with Heaven, Harmony with Earth, Harmony with Humans, and Harmony with Self, along with Greek philosopher Aristotle's physics: form, space, matter, and time, it sets them as criteria to evaluate the renewed and new courtyard housing projects constructed in China since the 1990s. Using an innovative architectural and social science approach, this book examines the political, economic, social, and spatial factors that affect cultural sustainability. Supported by a multiplicity of data including: field surveys, interviews with residents, architects, and planners, time diaries, drawings, photos, planning documents, observation notes, and real estate brochures, the book proposes new courtyard garden house design strategies that promote healthy communities and human care for one another, a concept that is universally applicable. The volume is a first opportunity to take a holistic view, to encompass eastern and western, tangible and intangible, cultures in the theorization of 'cultural sustainability' and 'culturally sustainable architecture.' It is a comprehensive contribution to architectural theory.

"What is causing the shortage of desperately needed vaccines to combat pneumoniaa, tetanus, chicken pox, measles, mumps and influenza? Why is an effective vaccine for Lyme disease no longer on the market? And what are the consequences for our children? Dr. Paul Offit confronts these vital questions in The Cutter Incident, a brilliant piece of writing about a medical tragedy, exactly fifty years ago, that revolutionized the development and testing of vaccines in the United States, while forever changing the legal culture that had once kept punitive lawsuits under control. Ofitt's remarkable book is certain to become a fixture in the increasingly angry battle over the impact of medical liability on the effective treatment of disease."-David M. Oshinsky, author of Polio: An American Story, �Dr. Offit brings us into the entangled world of medicine and law. Readers will have a better understanding of the impact that legal suits have on the vaccine industry, investment, and decisions not to pursue lifesaving vaccines because of liability issues.��Dean Mason, President and CEO, Sabine Vaccine Institute, "This book not only brings to life the main actors involved, it also demonstrates how this incident created legal precedents that forever changed product liability laws."--Roland Sutter, World Health Organization, "Dr. Offit brings us into the entangled world of medicine and law. Readers will have a better understanding of the impact that legal suits have on the vaccine industry, investment, and decisions not to pursue lifesaving vaccines because of liability issues."-Dean Mason, President and CEO, Sabine Vaccine Institute, "One of the best overviews of vaccines from the vantage of events associated with vaccine safety during an earlier era that I have ever read."�Maurice Hilleman, Merck Institute for Vaccinology, �Well written and easily understood, yet balanced with enough technical detail for medical professionals to read informatively cover to cover.�, "What is causing the shortage of desperately needed vaccines to combat pneumonia, tetanus, chicken pox, measles, mumps and influenza?
