The new urbanisation necessitates the upgrading of urban governance and spatial planning and design. Landscape Architecture Frontiers accentuates the intelligence on urban growth and physical construction for years. In this issue, LA Frontiers focuses on the topics about urban governance and spatial quality improvement under the promotion of inventory planning and governance refinement, including: 1) Urban village (micro-) renewals, waterfront revitalisation, and industrial, cultural, and historical heritage regeneration; 2) Public participation, community engagement, and other polycentric urban governance modes and inclusive design approaches; 3) The resilience of urban planning and design against sudden disasters and public health emergencies and crises; 4) Diagnoses on the working systems/mechanisms that support the upgrades of urban governance and public space construction, through lenses of Economic Sociology. By gathering cutting edge research with international outlooks and presenting latest practice examples among China and abroad, LA Frontiers might offer a new prospective that helps professionals interpret associated governance and planning policies, inform practitioners the goals and roadmaps of public empowerment, navigate planners and designers with flexible implementation and management guidelines, to eventually improve the spatial quality of public places, as well as the overall benefits in society, ecology, and economy.

Religious studies have traditionally been unscientific, using methods corrupted by faith. The educated do not believe in Adam, Eve, Noah, the Flood, or traditional concepts of God and Heaven. This book will state there is no historical proof other than several archaic books written of mythical stories of many unknown authors.

This raw and unwavering, yet accessable novel concentrates on Wellington, a desert storm veteran turned homeless alcoholic panhandler and his journey to Key West for his annual vacation. His travels from New York City to Key West force him to deal with religious zealots, masturbating truck drivers, gun toting hillbillies, drunken colleges kids and even one or two kinder souls. A there and back again of the lowest class. Life is in the details, whatever details a drunk can remember. When his friends, family and the world around him began to pass him by, Wellington decided to become a bum. The bulk of his military pension went to his wife and son, whom he hasn't seen since his decision. The rest is saved for his "vacation from being a bum", as he likes to say. The people that he meets along the way and his reactions to the situations his alcohol induced torpor put him in tell the tale of this conflicted man's life. Will he break free from the shackles of his own stunted philosophies or continue to his death?

History remembers Attila, the leader of the Huns, as the Romans perceived him: a savage barbarian brutally inflicting terror on whoever crossed his path. Following Attila and the Huns from the steppes of Kazakhstan to the court of Constantinople, Christopher Kelly portrays Attila in a compelling new light, uncovering an unlikely marriage proposal, a long-standing relationship with a treacherous Roman general, and a thwarted assassination plot. We see Attila as both a master warrior and an astute strategist whose rule was threatening but whose sudden loss of power was even more so. The End of Empire is an original exploration of the clash between empire and barbarity in the ancient world, full of contemporary resonance.

Attila the Hun - godless barbarian and near-mythical warrior king - has become a byword for mindless ferocity.
