Описание: Japanese homes speak to the soul and provide a contemplative environment from which to experience the world.Japan Style offers rare glimpses into twenty exquisite traditional homes in Japan. The lavish photographs in this volume demonstrate how Japanese design achieves a timeless tranquility using a few very simple, natural elements. Wood is the preferred building material since it is considered a "living" material; the country's Shinto and Zen Buddhist roots have inculcated a deep respect for nature. The houses in this book are a wonderful reminder that there are alternatives to "big is beautiful"--and that neither timelessness nor modernity has to be about using cold steel, glass and concrete. The wabi-sabi ideal, translated loosely by Frank Lloyd Wright as a "rusticity and simplicity that borders on loneliness," is considered the epitome of sophistication in Japanese interior design. The houses in this book invite us to rethink the wisdom of our hurried modern lifestyle and return to a simpler, slower life. The quintessential Japanese aesthetic can be seen in a 100-year-old minka farmhouse, an old merchant's machiya townhouse in Kyoto, a sprawling country Samurai villa, and in a modern seaside cottage. This book offers insights for architects and homeowners alike by providing inspiring and surprising alternatives, relevant to the design of homes anywhere in the world today.
Описание: This book explores why The Global Environment Facility (GEF) invests in evaluation for accountability and learning to inform its decision making on programming priorities, and how this leads to wiser funding decisions and better program performance on the ground.

Описание:
Annebelle Roth was afraid she'd get stuck in the small town she grew up in. She was afraid her high school boyfriend Riley would break her heart, and afraid a lifetime of regrets would follow them if they never left. Her solution? Break Riley's heart first, before they leave for college on opposite coasts.
Now, years later, the two find themselves back where it all began, and Annebelle quickly realizes their time apart hasn't stopped the butterflies from fluttering at the sight of him. But is it too late for them? The girl who wanted Riley in high school is still vying for his attention-and it appears she's finally getting it. Meanwhile, Annebelle's own experiences have left her scarred, and she continues to hold tight to the belief that small town life isn't for her.
Will Annebelle stick to her plan and leave once more without so much as a backwards glance? Or will Riverdale's residents-and the charm she once resisted-convince her otherwise?

Two grisly murders are committed at a meatpacking plant by a person wearing a cow mask...not long after the CEO of a water park is brutally killed by someone wearing an orca mask.
Interpol Agent An Chang believes these are the latest acts of a ruthless serial killer he has been chasing for more than twenty years...a killer who targets those who harm innocent animals.

Those who torture animals are not safe...
Working with two California detectives, Chang races to unmask the killer, as his spree ramps up. But the killer's motives and history are far deeper than anyone realizes, and the truth of his rampage leads on a wild chase from the streets of Shanghai around the globe...
