Beyond Sustainable presents a tour d’horizon of the prevailing conceptualizations of our planet’s ecology through a clear, systematic and comprehensive summary of the relevant sources. Moreover, the author projects an agenda for contemporary architecture that questions the very foundations of current practice - and so begins to shed light on matters that are still elusive, even to open eyes and open minds.
–Louisa Hutton and Matthias Sauerbruch, Architects

Beyond Sustainable situates, with great acuity, architecture’s current position in relation to elemental shifts in earth systems. Ludwig probes theories and histories of technology, economics, space and humanism to articulate how we might identify architecture and ourselves as integral, dynamic, parts of a "live-in-the-world ecology." The book is succinct yet rich and Ludwig is an excellent writer, both principled and persuasive.
–Catherine Ingraham, Ph.D. Author of Architecture the Burdens of Linearity and Architecture, Animal, Human

Ryan Ludwig’s book is an important addition to the literature on physicalizing phenomenology in architecture. With the environmental crisis as the governing challenge for all architectural production it is important to not succumb to solutions that simply mask but perpetuate past practices. More productively there is an opportunity to reimagine the relationship between body, shelter and ecosystem in light of the crisis. The book lays out an argument that architecture has played a role in facilitating bio-physical entanglements and with imagination and ingenuity can do so in the future.

"This book proposes a generic, atheoretical and potentially extremely helpful conceptual framework which is so simple and obvious that it is hard to understand why the clinical world of child and adolescent mental health services has been relatively slow in adopting it. The editors are to be warmly congratulated for providing a comprehensive introduction to a common language which may be readily adopted by clinicians, regardless of their orientation or primary training, by families attempting to provide the best support to young people regardless of the specific problem, by young people trying to find their way through their increasingly complex social network and by the broader systems of schools, communities and social institutions which are so evidently failing in mitigating depression and anxiety in our young people."

The book is for romantics and skeptics alike.&rdquo; --Oprah Daily &ldquo;Mergers & Acquisitions, former New York Times journalist Cate Doty&rsquo;s account of her time on the weddings beat, is a reception-worthy buffet of juicy backstories that didn&rsquo;t make it into print, including her own.&rdquo;&#160;&mdash;Martha Stewart Living &ldquo;Cate Doty spent years writing for the weddings section of The New York Times.

"Explosion Green" describes how the author got into the green-building business at its inception and helped to carry the movement into full swing. A good backroom look into corporate activism, this interesting memoir presents an alternative to engineering change in environmental policies. Instead of focusing on noisy extremes and protests, it demonstrates that
one person’s years of quiet hard work and unrelenting determination can make a difference in even the most immobile systems. 
It’s fairly easy to vote green, install energy-efficient lighting, and turn down the heat at home, but relatively few people take further steps against climate change. Gottfried, however, basically devoted his career to his cause, taking true professional risks to bring green-building certifications into reality. More than a memoir, this book functions well as an inspirational tale for anyone working in the green sector or simply striving to manage a cleaner business or lifestyle. 
Part of the charm of this book is Gottfried’s marriage of traditional business tactics and earnest idealism. His personal and business connections and experiences in the boardroom represent a world that many modern professionals may find familiar. The book shows how the author incorporated his personal feelings about climate change into decisions he made in his career. As he navigates the difficult border between idealism and pragmatism, Gottfried explores a conundrum experienced by too many Americans and addressed by too few. Vivid detail and a strong descriptive voice help to round out the author and make him a likable, sympathetic personality. 
Though the many boardroom discussions the book recounts can get a little repetitive, the author’s voice is engaging and personal enough to keep it interesting. The book’s strong linear structure fits nicely with the more well-known time line of the environmental movement, from the relative ignorance of the seventies to the increasing awareness today. It is easy to imagine a new generation of environmental pioneers taking over the business world in the pattern that
Gottfried lays down in this book. 
Gottfried’s point of view will fascinate any entrepreneur. Innovators struggling with ways to reconcile the demands of their work with the needs of the environment will find this accounting valuable, and it could be considered required reading for activists. --- By Foreword Reviews

"Caroline Zancan&rsquo;s wizardry is difficult to summarize: her prose is precise, deft, cutting&mdash;summing up a glance, an intent, a person&rsquo;s inner weather with perfect efficiency, and making it look easy. We Wish You Luck is a book for anyone who&rsquo;s ever had literature change their life. It makes the undeniable case for the power of words on a page&mdash;their power to make us, and to break us apart completely."&mdash;Rachel Khong, author of Goodbye, Vitamin"A twisted campus novel told in the third person, which collectively expresses the perspective of three ambitious, brilliant students.... It's a rollicking read that offers a sharp take on the creative process, revenge, and envy."&#160;&mdash;Elle&ldquo;Elegant and enthralling&rdquo;&#160;&mdash;Newsweek"A&#160;classic tale of revenge and redemption, as well as love and friendship, and success and ambition....&#160;Zancan adeptly describes the naked wanting, aspirations, and work that are part of the MFA experience, but she also shows how devastating cruelty or even mere criticism can be depending on how it is received and the recipient&rsquo;s mindset. The novel&rsquo;s characters are multi-dimensional..."&#160;&mdash;Bust"Zancan does a wonderful job of describing the characters who populate this program, with excellent pacing and a momentum that turns the MFA life into a gripping story of professional and personal revenge."&#160;&mdash;The Millions (Most Anticipated List)&ldquo;Immersive and atmospheric, easy to stick with... We Wish You Luck is a clever take down of the systems and privileges of writing programs and the academicification of creative writing.&rdquo; &mdash;BookRiot &#160; "So unbelievably satisfying.&rdquo;&#160;&mdash;HelloGiggles &#160; &ldquo;Literary catnip...young writers, bad teachers, revenge, poetry. A Eugenides-esque chorus of students narrate the events of their time at a low residency MFA program in Vermont.&rdquo; &mdash;Emily Temple, Lit Hub   "[An]&#160;elaborate revenge plot, which I just had to see through to the last dark deed.&rdquo;&#160;&mdash;Kiki Koroshetz, Goop"[I]nventive, addictive....&#160;Zancan excels at portraying the claustrophobia and competitiveness that can arise when someone is near others who share the same goals. This ambitious novel about love and revenge reads like a thriller, while asking probing questions about what it means to make art and how artists influence each other, for better or worse.&rdquo;&#160;&mdash;Publishers Weekly"[C]aptures the fraught environment of almost-grown-ups on campus in sharp, unsparing detail and with lyrical momentum.... [A]sks intriguing questions about power, complicity, and the urge to tell someone else&rsquo;s story.&rdquo; &mdash;Kirkus&ldquo;Zancan weaves together an extraordinary story peopled by fascinating characters who are not easily forgotten. She explores the communal process of literary production and creates a palpable tension between creation and destruction that will keep readers engaged.&rdquo;&#160;&mdash;Booklist&ldquo;A seductive and tightly controlled literary revenge story. With a dash of&#160;The Secret History,&#160;We Wish You Luck&#160;is a wonderful, hypnotic novel about craft, narrative, and the stakes of literary production.&rdquo; &mdash;Lydia Kiesling, author of&#160;The Golden State&#160;&ldquo;We Wish You Luck&#160;is a thrilling tale, a puzzle that isn&rsquo;t so much assembled as revealed by its crafty chorus of We. I loved watching the story unfold, and I loved never knowing if the collective impulse was to create or destroy. A smart, fun read.&rdquo;&mdash;Lindsay Hunter, author of&#160;Eat Only When You&rsquo;re Hungry&#160;and&#160;Ugly Girls&ldquo;A coming-of-age story filled with fascinating, richly imagined characters, Zancan tells the story of writers and their intricate, at times darkly ruinous desires. It&rsquo;s rare to describe a book about writing as &lsquo;addictive,&rsquo; but that&rsquo;s exactly what Zancan has done here.&rdquo;&#160;&mdash;Hala Alyan, author of&#160;Salt Houses
