The High Cost of Free Parking book cover
The High Cost of Free Parking
Updated Edition
Donald Shoup - 2005-01-01 (впервые опубликовано в 2004)
Рейтинг Goodreads
American drivers park for free on nearly ninety-nine percent of their car trips, and cities require developers to provide ample off-street parking for every new building. The resulting cost? Today we see sprawling cities that are better suited to cars than people and a nationwide fleet of motor vehicles that consume one-eighth of the world's total ...

Correct. Bad urban policy design requiring excessive amounts of parking for residential and commercial buildings makes this problem worse. Love my e-bike (tho avoid @BlixBike) & technology can help too Also The High Cost of Free Parking is a great book.      источник

The Alchemy of Air book cover
The Alchemy of Air
A Jewish Genius, a Doomed Tycoon, and the Scientific Discovery That Fed the World but Fueled the Rise of Hitler
Thomas Hager - 2008-09-09
Рейтинг Goodreads
The Alchemy of Air delves into the tragic genius, cutting-edge science, and discovery that changed billions of lives, including your own. It tells the story of brilliant scientists Fritz Haber and Carl Bosch, who discovered a way to make bread out of air, built city-sized factories, and saved millions of lives. However, their triumph came at a price we are still paying, as the process was also used to make the gunpowder and explosives that killed millions during the two world wars. This previously untold story is a must-read for those interested in the intersection of science and history.

Impeach
The Case Against Donald Trump
Neal Katyal - 2019-11-26
Рейтинг Goodreads
In "Impeach," Supreme Court lawyer and former Acting Solicitor General Neal Katyal argues that President Trump's repeated requests for foreign powers to interfere in the 2020 election threaten the very foundations of democracy. Katyal maintains that impeachment is the last resort left to hold the President accountable for these actions, and one that our Constitution demands. If we fail to act, we risk compromising the core values that make America what it is.

It's an interesting column. It bears a striking resemblance (without attribution) to the arguments, quotes, history in @neal_katyal's excellent new book.      источник
