"Small-Scale Urban Greening provides an excellent summary of the literature regarding human interaction with nature, ranging from a thorough explication of research to a detailed discussion of public policy. The examples involving green infrastructure, roofs, vacant lots and industrial corridors enhance our understanding of the impact of urban nature interventions."Mardelle McCuskey Shepley, D.Arch., FAIA, Chair and Janet and Gordon Lankton Professor Design + Environmental Analysis, CORNELL UNIVERSITY

"Angela Loder masterfully shines a light on the opportunity for the leftover, marginal and abandoned spaces in our urban environments to become green spaces that connect us to nature. Small-Scale Urban Greening is a comprehensive review of the research, case studies, and policy that can make these opportunities come to life and provide the critical links between health, equity and community that are so badly needed in our cities."Amanda Sturgeon, FAIA, Head if Regenerative Design, Mott MacDonald

'An important and perceptive post-mortem which links the latest generation of COIN theory and practice firmly in the tradition of Western Imperial hubris, while demonstrating why success in 'political warfare' has proven both so elusive and fragile.'

"As someone who thoroughly enjoys Iowa history, I am pleased to be able to recommend Christopher W. Larimer's Gubernatorial Stability in Iowa: A Stranglehold on Power. The research and analysis presented offers insight and an element of predictability for Iowa elections based on historical trends." - Terry E. Branstad, Governor of Iowa

"While Larimer's book is about recent governors, it's also about what works and what doesn't in political campaigns: Hard work. Bob Ray, Terry Branstad, Tom Vilsack, and Chuck Grassley have one thing in common: they are tireless. Having a good work ethic is clearly an Iowa value, most Iowans do it every day of their lives and they expect to see their leaders do the same. When leaders don't, they get fired. If you want to understand Iowa politics, you need to read this book. If you want to win a statewide election in Iowa, read it twice." - David Yepsen, Director, Paul Simon Public Policy Institute, Southern Illinois University, USA

"In this book, Larimer combines a careful understanding of modern political science and its methods with a keen eye for understanding politics. The result is both an excellent read and a thought-provoking contribution to the political science literature on US governors and on public opinion of executive officials more generally. And along the way, the reader is treated to an excellent primer on Iowa politics a heartland state with an out-sized impact on presidential elections and American culture." - Christopher Z. Mooney, Director, Institute of Government & Public Affairs, University of Illinois, USA

"This slim volume provides a unique window into how voters perceive the governor. Through rigorous analysis and gifted storytelling, Larimer demonstrates why Governors, particularly in a state like Iowa, must maintain a close connection to the voters to be successful. This book should be of interest to scholars, students, and citizens interested in Iowa politics, the office of the governor, and why personal connection still matters in politics" - Chris Cooper, Professor and Department Head, Western Carolina University, USA

'The Singaporean duo on quality of life research have done it again in delivering the most comprehensive and updated profile of Singaporeans and the Singaporean society. The book delivers it with well-thought-out questionnaires from 1996, 2001, 2011 and 2016, and with the analytic lucidity and force that are characteristic of this duo, whose first names, Soo Jiuan and Siok Kuan, mean the same. The pronounced strength of this book is that it organizes the text with the question "what matters for Singaporeans" and presents analyses from the level of individual responses to that of societal features quite seamlessly, thus nicely capturing the evolution of Singapore with its time-tested resilience after the Global Crisis in 2008. It is hoped that Singapore and Southeast Asia would be a model of QOL resilience to the rest of the world.' — Takashi Inoguchi, Eminent Scholar-Professor, Institute of Asian Cultures, J. F. Oberlin University, Japan
'Based on the latest 2016 Quality of Life (QOL) survey conducted in Singapore, this book comprehensively examines and summarizes the important dimensions (e.g., money, values, trust) that are related to Singaporeans’ subjective well-being. Comparisons to earlier QOL surveys (conducted in 1996, 2001, and 2011) enable the authors to analyze how Singaporeans’ subjective well-being has changed over the last two decades. The book not only includes invaluable data on happiness in Singapore, but also encompasses a thorough review of the latest literature, as the authors synthesize the findings from various works to provide an insightful perspective of the links between some of these key factors and subjective well-being.' — Associate Professor Ng Wei Ting, Head, Master of Applied Research in Social Sciences (MRESS), Singapore University of Social Sciences
