Since the 1990s, the urban landscape of China has witnessed revolutionary changes that are unrivalled in any country of the world throughout history. Rapid urbanization, facilitated by the modern planning mechanism for growth, provides a feast for property developers. Yet, associated urban problems such as housing affordability, traffic congestion, energy consumption, and environmental deterioration are aggravated. This book takes a historic approach to investigate the planning philosophy, urban form and life of the past. Through a detailed study of urban development from early times through the imperial period with a focus on the Tang-Song dynasties, this book attempts to articulate the good qualities of urban landscapes from the past that still have instructive value for modern practices. The focus on the Tang-Song period is not only because China was the most advanced civilization of its time, but also because it underwent a similar process of "urbanization", evident by tremendous economic growth, a dramatic rise of urban population, and an extended building boom. Through evaluating the streets, city layout, public places, urban communities, houses and gardens, and using interdisciplinary research in urban planning, urban design, architecture, history, and cultural studies, this book asserts that the past is quintessentially important. The past not only truthfully records the course of social and cultural formation of urban community and its associated physical fabric, but also regulates the directions we may take in the future.

Fuel and repair costs are rising…
Why not make your (overpriced) fuel work for you? If you appreciate your internal combustion engine, and want to help avoid costly repairs or maintenance to your fuel injector system, you can! To be honest the quality of fuel is often questionable (I’m looking right at you, ethanol). Modern fuel injection systems are squeezed for every iota of fuel economy and performance. It makes sense to be a little proactive with the preventative maintenance, it’s just good sense. Adding Jectron to your fuel is a smart, and economical measure that you can take, to keep your injection system running as designed. It won’t damage your emissions components, it won’t harm your fuel systems more delicate parts (O-rings, plastic tubing, filters, etc.). There are plenty of great options out there, such as Chevron’s Techron, and a handful of other reputable products. I used to be a very strong advocate of Techron (it’s still my backup choice). However, after witnessing Jectron solve a battery of problems on a variety of vehicles, I’m a convert.
