We Dream

What if the biggest obstacle to solving our problems is nothing more than a failure to believe that we can?Rick Caruso has spent his life stepping optimistically into places where other people see no way forward by asking a deceptively simple question: What can we do to make this better? From his appointment as Commissioner to the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power and later the City's troubled Police Department, to the creation of his bold and innovative real estate ventures including L.A.'s world-renowned retail center The Grove, Caruso built a reputation for finding steadfast solutions even in the face of staunch adversity. By employing the great teachers of experience and curiosity, he continues to do what he can to improve Los Angeles, the city he loves, and in Breaking New Ground, he shares lessons learned along the way--while offering us all a path forward to a better future.Again and again, Caruso discovered that breakthroughs rarely come from knowing everything at the outset. They come from asking better questions, bringing the right people into the room, listening without ego, separating ideology from reality, and refusing to give up until workable solutions emerge. Ultimately, they require a steadfast dedication to the belief that there is always a solution and that defeat is not an option.Breaking New Ground is the story of how his philosophy was forged--from the examples of immigrant grandparents and a father who lost one fortune and built another, to Caruso's own successes, failures, public battles, family life, faith, and unexpected turns through business and government.Caruso is less interested in prescribing a formula for becoming successful than in exploring how successful problem-solvers think: how they distinguish what matters from what merely makes noise; how they balance conviction with compromise; how they recognize when conventional wisdom has stopped working; and how they remain fearless enough to see difficult decisions through.Part memoir, part argument, and part blueprint for action, Breaking New Ground offers a timely proposition for anyone confronting a problem that feels too complicated, entrenched, or divisive to solve.There is always another way forward. Sometimes you simply have to be willing to build it.

The Power of Finding Steadfast Solutions

Breaking New Ground

Mit 'Filin' legt Saxofonistin Melissa Aldana ein Balladenalbum mit Liedern aus der kubanischen Musiktradition vor, interpretiert im Quartett mit dem legendären Pianisten Gonzalo Rubalcaba, Bassist Peter Washington und Schlagzeuger Kush Abadey sowie Gastsängerin Cécile McLorin Salvant. Seit ihren Anfängen hegt die in Chile geborene Aldana den Wunsch, ein Balladenalbum aufzunehmen. Nach ihrem GRAMMY-nominierten Blue Note-Debüt '12 Stars' (2022) und dem Nachfolgealbum 'Echoes Of The Inner Prophet' (2024), zwei von der Kritik begeistert aufgenommenen spirituellen Modern-JazzWerken, geht sie mit ihrem dritten Blue-Note-Album ihr Traumprojekt jetzt auf ungewöhnliche Weise an. Pianist Gonzalo Rubalcaba, schlug vor, sie solle die Filin-Musik seiner Heimat interpretieren, kunstvoll arrangierte romantische Lieder, die zwischen den späten 1940er und frühen 1960er Jahren ihre Blütezeit erlebten. Das Ergebnis ist ein sinnliches Jazz-Werk der Spitzenklasse.

Shortlisted for the Financial Times and Schroders Business Book of the Year Award How 1,000 years of global history show why technological and economic progress is often followed by stagnation and even collapse In How Progress Ends, Carl Benedikt Frey challenges the conventional belief that economic and technological progress is inevitable. For most of human history, stagnation was the norm, and even today progress and prosperity in the world's largest, most advanced economies--the United States and China--have fallen short of expectations. To appreciate why we cannot depend on any AI-fueled great leap forward, Frey offers a remarkable and fascinating journey across the globe, spanning the past 1,000 years, to explain why some societies flourish and others fail in the wake of rapid technological change. By examining key historical moments--from the rise of the steam engine to the dawn of AI--Frey shows why technological shifts have shaped, and sometimes destabilized, entire civilizations. He explores why some leading technological powers of the past--such as Song China, the Dutch Republic, and Victorian Britain--ultimately lost their innovative edge, why some modern nations such as Japan had periods of rapid growth followed by stagnation, and why planned economies like the Soviet Union collapsed after brief surges of progress. Frey uncovers a recurring tension in history: while decentralization fosters the exploration of new technologies, bureaucracy is crucial for scaling them. When institutions fail to adapt to technological change, stagnation inevitably follows. Only by carefully balancing decentralization and bureaucracy can nations innovate and grow over the long term--findings that have worrying implications for the United States, Europe, China, and other economies today. Through a rich narrative that weaves together history, economics, and technology, How Progress Ends reveals that managing the future requires us to draw the right lessons from the past.

An inspirational manifesto of innovative pre-fab solutions to the urgent housing problems around the world from a progressive young practice. A manifesto for a new age of architecture, Plugin House is a guide to the innovative, sustainable and community-driven solutions to the global housing crisis. Challenging conventional architectural practices, the book champions the prefabricated house as an affordable and practical way to address homelessness, housing scarcity or gentrification. An empowering model for small studios and self-builders worldwide, Plugin House proposes an architectural revolution through houses that can be built quickly with limited tools and experience. The book presents a diverse array of Plugin House projects by international architecture studio People's Architecture Office (PAO), brought to life by photography of these structures in situ. Located in China and the US, the projects shine a spotlight on the shared issues underlying the global housing crisis and the transformative ideas that can be replicated or adapted to different contexts around the world. Insights into barriers to accessible housing and potential ways to overcome them are revealed through personal stories, each its own mini graphic novel. Illustrated assembly manuals reveal how Plugin Houses are put together, and a comprehensive atlas of each Plugin House to date details their design and construction. A visually striking and inspiring handbook, Plugin House boldly paints a vivid picture of a new architectural paradigm, igniting a call to action for architects and urban planners worldwide. This publication was supported in part by a grant from Design Trust.

LONGLISTED FOR THE 2026 BOOKER PRIZE SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2026 TOM WOLFE PRIZE "All Them Dogs is all that--a book you inhale, devour, grapple with, and reel from more than read." - Booker Prize winner Marlon James "A fast-paced tale of underworld revenge and star-crossed love that never waits for readers to catch their breath." - NPR "In the best Irish style, Djamel White uses a local voice to blast through language and make it new. All Them Dogs is a stylish, adroit, and gritty debut." - Booker Prize winner Anne Enright A young Irish gangster is caught in a brutal dance between desire and loyalty Tony Ward is back in Dublin. After five years in England, where he fled after murdering a rival gang member, he returns to find that his mentor is dead and his best friend has gone straight. Keen to reestablish himself, he jumps at the chance to work for the enforcer of a local crime boss. But Flute Walsh is a far cry from the boy Tony once knew. Drawn to Flute in ways he never expected, Tony finds that the boundaries he thought he understood are breaking down in a world where nothing stays buried and where retribution is just a bullet away. By turns savage, erotic, and unexpectedly tender, All Them Dogs is a gripping story of violence, lust, and greed that explores one man's struggles to find balance in an unsparing world.
