At Bat III
For Mel Glenn, baseball is more than just a pleasant pastime, it is poetry in motion. Baseball plays a big part in the game of life, helping Mel and millions of like-minded fans cope with everyday stress and life-changing challenges. As we face the realities of aging, for example, Mel shows how following baseball keeps the playful child inside us alive and happy. And while Mel may "live and die" with the performance of his favorite teams and players, he reminds us that what happens on the diamond remains all in good fun.-Sam Friedman, author, Spikes: The Story of the First Lady of Baseball, As Told to Jackie RobinsonMel Glenn is passionate about sports. He reads, thinks, and talks about sports throughout the day, month, and year, anticipating upcoming games and entire seasons in his head. Sports even helps set his mood depending on whether his team wins or loses. But what sets Mel apart from the average fan is that his love of sports inspires him to write some beautiful poetry. In this, his third collection, each poem is a surprise. Reading them I've nodded at what he noticed, laughed at an irony, appreciated a metaphor, and as a fellow Brooklynite, commiserated and celebrated the fates of our teams.-Dror Kahn, co-author, The Lindens Still Bloom: A Survivor's StoryMel Glenn's poetic homage grabs the reader as it celebrates what makes baseball so special. I liked every poem and loved many, and I expect you will as well. From the first pitch of spring training to the last out in the World Series, baseball is a long season for players and fans alike. The poems in Mel's latest compilation honor those who make magic from March to October, reliving the moments that make us feel total exhilaration or complete despair - both emotions often experienced during the same inning. Read each poem with the respect and reverence it deserves, for baseball really does still matter in the lives of dedicated fans like Mel and me.-John E. Jarvey, baseball fan

Gumshoe is a new series of architectural books that introduces an original approach to the writing of architectural history. It returns the focus of architectural discourse back onto buildings in a style and form that is fresh and scholarly but also easy and enjoyable to read. It emulates the detective novel--a form of writing beloved by many, but also one that has enjoyed a parallel academic life in disciplines and by writers in fields as diverse as psychoanalysis (Sigmund Freud), film (Sigfried Kracauer), and art history (Carlo Ginzburg)--but, significantly, not yet by architecture. Each volume will investigate a singular building as if it were a mystery waiting to be solved. Written by distinguished French architectural critic and historian Fran癟oise Fromonot, the first case--The House of Doctor Koolhaas--is about the Villa dall'Ava, a private residence in Saint-Cloud, a suburb of Paris. Fromonot brilliantly unpicks, explains, and interprets this very first building completed by Rem Koolhaas, who is universally regarded as the world's most celebrated architect, and his Rotterdam-based firm Office for Metropolitan Architecture. The house is resolutely part of a modern architectural canon, but until now has not been the focus of a dedicated book or analysis.
The wildfire risk management in buildings
Despite increasing investments in wildfire management, the occurrence of larger and more intense wildfires has become more frequent. Consequently, the impact on infrastructure located in high-risk areas has led to dramatic situations, involving the destruction of assets with significant economic and social value and, in extreme cases, the loss of human lives. This work aims to share technical and scientific knowledge on the most effective ways to manage wildfire risk in buildings, specifically dwellings. Three essential components are considered - the building itself, its surroundings, and self-protection capacity. These are examined in relation to current legislation and policies in Portugal. The content will be of primary interest to both technical and non-technical professionals involved in wildland-urban interface fire management, as well as to the general public, especially to citizens with buildings located in fire-prone areas.
