Book Award Finalist for Urban Design Group Awards 2020 Human settlements are the result of a mix of self-organisation and planning. Planners are fighting a losing battle to impose order on chaotic systems. Connections between the process of urban growth and the fields of complexity theory are of increasing importance to planners and urbanists alike; the idea that cities are emergent structures created not by design but from the interplay of relatively simple rules and forces over time. From the the small Tuscan hill town to the megacities of Asia: the struggle between the planned and the unplanned is universal. Based on years of international research, Climax City is a critical exploration of the growth of cities and masterplanning. Challenging the idea that the city can be entirely planned on paper, this book implores you to work with chaos when planning cities. Beautifully illustrated with striking hand-drawn plans of global cities, this is a vital and accessible contribution to urban theory and planning. It’s the perfect title for practitioners and academics across planning and urban design looking to make sense out of chaos.
In a lonely western town, a marshal stands in the way of a gang of killers There is nothing to love about the town of Climax, a godforsaken speck of earth with one saloon, one restaurant, and one lawman. Ever since he got too old to ride the range, Giles Frost has worn a silver star, sleeping in the jail, patrolling Main Street twice a day, and waiting for trouble that has never shown its face—until now. On his nightly patrol, a gunshot rings out and Frost falls to the dirt, shot in the side. A gang of renegades has decided to make their home in Climax, and they have no interest in retaining the services of the law. But although he may look soft, Giles Frost has a spine of steel. There’s not much to this town, but its sheriff will kill to keep it free.

This action-packed thrilling adventure story, based on the author’s own experiences, is triggered by a gang of arsonists setting fire to the Amazon rainforest while blackmailing governments to stop them doing so. This results in the Major, a ruthless mercenary, being employed by Bob, a multibillionaire, to help him tackle climate change head on. But the task almost ends in disaster when his aircraft is brought down into the blazing forest by an arsonist’s drone. While Bob, who has made a few ‘bob’ selling the world uranium through his company Nuklin, tries to encourage countries to scrap all fossil fuelled power stations in exchange for a new type of small, modular reactor being developed by Rolls Royce, his mercenary, after raiding the arsonists with his beautiful Brazilian girlfriend, is accused of double homicide and thrown into a local gaol to face the gallows. Due to a feat of engineering, an aerial planting machine named a SPOD is developed in Rio to seed the Australian Outback with carbon eating plants. But having escaped death twice, getting it there without being seen is only the third of the Major’s problems, which culminate when Ud, the Indonesian firebrand behind the arsonists, is persuaded by the mercenary, who finding his island lair is about to have his throat cut, to carry out a last ditch attempt to save the world from catastrophe – ending in victory.
This charming account of life, circa 1956, in a remote mining town in central Colorado, depicts a vivid sense of the intensity of a child’s world - its passions, fears, anxieties, joys and pleasures. Contrasted with the ambience of family life in all its detail and devotion are sharp, but often wry, scenes where the young protagonist strains against the restrictions and prohibitions that are a natural part of growing up and the testing of which in large part measures that growth. The storyline is interwoven with historical vignettes regarding the molybdenum mining industry during it’s heyday, and the foundation and maintenance of the town of Climax at 11,300 feet - a unique community and an important part of Colorado history.
