Through the Emerging and Sustainable Cities Initiative, the IDB has witnessed the prominent role that Latin American cities play in the region's affairs and the importance of city-to-city international cooperation. Tavares' Paradiplomacy is mandatory reading to whoever wishes to understand why subnational international cooperation is key to solving the sustainability challenges of our increasingly urban future.

Cities and States as Global Players

Paradiplomacy

"It will be extremely useful for scholars concerned about general patterns of social inequality as well as specialists studying sociospatial division, gentrification, or segregation (ethnic as well as socioeconomic). The book could also be used to help teach courses on urban sociology and geography, housing studies, or social policy."Rory Coulter, University of Cambridge, Journal of Urban Affairs
'This well-organized book provides the reader with a feel for the uniqueness of each city and its segregation problem. I especially appreciated the fact that the contributors combined statistical measures of segregation and mapped location coefficients with information on the city’s history, as well as its welfare and housing policies.' 
David Varady, University of Cincinnati, Geography Research Forum (GRF)
"...the book will be useful for researchers (academic and policy) who are interested in spatial segregation in any of the cities featured in the book. The book presents the problems of small area comparisons internationally and provides a worthy attempt of differences in spatial segregation in Europe."
Stephen Jivraj, University College London, London, UK, International Journal of Housing Policy

The Gift

&ldquo;Snowbound in Maine, two strangers struggle to survive--fighting, flirting, baring secrets. Their sexy, snappy dialogue will keep you racing through.&rdquo; &mdash;People  &ldquo;A snowstorm hits a small town in Maine, trapping strangers in a cabin: Danielle, who is homeless, and Eric, a lawyer who swoops in to help her. As temps drop, tensions rise and passions flare.&rdquo; &mdash;Good Housekeeping  &ldquo;The Remedy for Love is a page-turner, a love story and a vivid drama of man (and woman) against the elements. Those who read and loved Roorbach&#39;s sprawling, eccentric Life Among Giants, coming to HBO as a dramatic series, will be a little surprised to see that The Remedy for Love is nothing like it--except that it&#39;s a great read by a wonderful writer who obviously has many tricks up his sleeve.&rdquo; &mdash;Newsday &ldquo;[A] superbly grown-up love story . . . Another expertly delivered portrait of the world from Roorbach (Life Among Giants, 2012, etc.), that poet of hopeless tangles.&rdquo; &mdash;Kirkus Reviews, starred review  &ldquo;Part survival tale and part romance . . . Roorbach does well in the limited space, keeping the narrative tight without being claustrophobic . . . There&rsquo;s more depth to the fierce and mercurial Danielle than meets the eye, which gives [the characters&#39;] interactions spark as the storm rages outside and something even more powerful develops within.&rdquo; &mdash;Booklist  &ldquo;One of the best novels of this or any year . . . A flat-out funny, sexy, and poignant romantic thriller.&rdquo; &mdash;David Abrams, author of Fobbit  &ldquo;The Remedy for Love is not the remedy for sleep deprivation. You&rsquo;ll stay up all night . . . It is relentless and brilliant. Leave it to Roorbach to tease out the subtlest nuances in the progress of love while stoking a tale that is as gripping as any Everest expedition--and that is also tender and terrifying and funny and, in the end, so true it seems inevitable. I&rsquo;m not sure there&rsquo;s another American writing today who can lay down a love story, or any story, with the depth and appeal and freshness of Bill Roorbach.&rdquo; &mdash;Peter Heller, author of The Dog Stars

„Total schönes Buch. […] Das ausgekochte Trio zelebriert Erotik elegant, facettenreich. Ihre messerscharfen, von altersbedingter hormoneller Ernüchterung gebeizten Storys, Gedichte und Zeichnungen huldigen der Frivolität des Lebens.“
STUTTGARTER NACHRICHTEN

„Droste, Heidelbach, und Klink hatten wundervolle Bücher schon verfasst, über Wurst, Weihnachten, Wein, Wild und Gemüse. Damit diese feine Assoziationskette nicht unterbrochen würde, beschlossen sie, der Serie ein weiteres Werk hinzufügen und schrieben, zeichneten und kochten ganz zauberhaft zum Thema Liebe.“
EFFILEE

„Herausgekommen ist ein prächtiger, bibliophiler Band mit einer Mischung aus oft wunderbar trockenem Humor in Bild und Text  und natürlich Rezepten von Vincent Klink, die dem Anlaß entsprechend nach ihrer ‚aphrodisischen Potenz‘ klassifiziert sind.“
FAZ I-PHONE-APP-EMPFEHLUNG

„Droste gibt den romantischen Lyriker und Sprachkritiker und Heidelbach hat wieder mehr schräge Ideen als andere Künstler in ihrer gesamten Karriere. Das Buch ist schön, macht gute Laune und bietet einen Nutzwert: So soll es sein.“
WESTFALENPOST

„Der sämtliche Sinne anregende Band ist Genussliteratur der leckersten Sorte.“
