Chef Edward Lee's story and his food could only happen in America. Raised in Brooklyn by a family of Korean immigrants, he eventually settled down in his adopted town of Louisville, Kentucky, where he owns the acclaimed restaurant 610 Magnolia. A multiple James Beard Award nominee for his unique patchwork cuisine, Edward creates recipes - filled with pickling, fermenting, frying, curing, and smoking - that reflect the overlapping flavours and techniques that led this Korean-American boy to feel right at home in the South. Dishes like Chicken-fried Pork Steak with Ramen Crust and Buttermilk Pepper Gravy; Collards and Kimchi; Braised Beef Kalbi with Soft Grits and Scallions; and Miso-Smothered Chicken all share a place on his table. Born with the storytelling gene of a true Southerner, Lee fills his debut cookbook with tales of the restaurant world, New York City, Kentucky, and his time competing on Top Chef, plus more than 130 exceptional recipes for food with Korean roots and South...

This volume presents the discipline's best thinking on sustainability in written, drawn, and built form, drawing on over fifteen years of peer-reviewed essays and national design awards published by the Association of Collegiate Schools of Architecture (ACSA). Providing a primer on sustainability, useful to teachers and students alike, the selected essays address a broad range of issues. Combined with design projects that highlight issues holistically, they promote an understanding of the principles of sustainability and further the integration of sustainable methods into architectural projects. Using essays that alternately revise and clarify twentieth century architectural thinking, The Green Braid places sustainability at the centre of excellent architectural design. No other volume addresses sustainability within the context of architectural history, theory, pedagogy and design, making this book an ideal source for architects in framing their practices, and therefore their arch...

A transformational journey through Italy, India, and Bali searching for pleasure and devotion--the massive bestseller from the author of Big Magic and City of Girls. This beautifully written, heartfelt memoir touched a nerve among both readers and reviewers. Elizabeth Gilbert tells how she made the difficult choice to leave behind all the trappings of modern American success (marriage, house in the country, career) and find, instead, what she truly wanted from life. Setting out for a year to study three different aspects of her nature amid three different cultures, Gilbert explored the art of pleasure in Italy and the art of devotion in India, and then a balance between the two on the Indonesian island of Bali. By turns rapturous and rueful, this wise and funny author (whom Booklist calls "Anne Lamott's hip, yoga- practicing, footloose younger sister") is poised to garner yet more adoring fans.

Veränderte Rahmenbedingungen haben den Krankenhäusern in den vergangenen Jahren bereits enorme Anpassungen und Veränderungen abverlangt. Effizienz und Qualität sind mittlerweile akzeptierte Handlungsfelder im rasch wachsenden Wettbewerb - vielfach noch mit Standardkonzepten aus anderen Wirtschaftszweigen, die sich vor allem auf die nicht medizinischen Bereiche konzentrierten. Dort waren erhebliche Reserven zu heben und damit große Fortschritte möglich. In der anstehenden zweiten Veränderungswelle geht es zunehmend um die Medizin selber. Bestehen und überleben werden nur Kliniken, deren Gestaltungs- und Führungspersonal gleichermaßen Exzellenz im medizinischen wie ökonomischen Management aufbauen und anwenden. In diesem Standardwerk bringen führende Krankenhausmanager - oftmals zusätzlich als Health Professionals qualifiziert - ihre Expertise ein. Leitgedanke des Buches ist der praxisorientierte Ansatz mit realer Darstellung der Problemstellungen und Lösungen sowie nachahmenswerten Pra...

Written almost a century before the daring flights of the astronauts, Jules Verne's prophetic novel of man's race to the stars is a classic adventure tale enlivened by broad satire and scientific acumen. When the members of the elite Baltimore Gun Club find themselves lacking any urgent assignments at the close of the Civil War, their president, Impey Barbicane, proposes that they build a gun big enough to launch a rocket to the moon. But when Barbicane's adversary places a huge wager that the project will fail and a daring volunteer elevates the mission to a "manned" flight, one man's dream turns into an international space race. A story of rip-roaring action, humor, and wild imagination, From the Earth to the Moon is as uncanny in its accuracy and as filled with authentic detail and startling immediacy as Verne's timeless masterpieces 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea and Around the World in Eighty Days.
