What role does architecture and trade play in creating civilized societies? How can we create urban environments where the individual can flourish? These questions have taken on a new significance as COVID-19 has reshaped the way cities operate.

This collection of essays examines the history of urbanism and trade in order to shed perspective on the future of the city. Nine contributors discuss how architecture, urban planning and trade have contributed to civility and political order. The authors cover historical topics from Florentine frescos and churches to ideas on citizenship and statehood from Rosseau, Hobbes and Machiavelli, as well as more contemporary issues such as the impact of global capital on the functioning of public space.

Contributors include: Yolande Barnes, Erica Benner, Anne Fairfax, Antony Molho, Kjell A. Nordström, Juliet Samuel, John Simpson, Nicholas Boys Smith and Maurizio Viroli.

Better way to open a can
Color: Blue
I may not have arthritis, but it saves time and energy. I will be buying another one for the band concession stand. It beats using an original can opener.

Works great!
Color: Black with Silver
I am absolutely thrilled with the HouseSapp Rechargeable Electric Can Opener! This handy gadget has made opening cans a breeze. It’s so easy to use — simply press a button, and it automatically opens the can smoothly and safely. No more struggling with manual can openers or worrying about sharp edges! The rechargeable feature is fantastic. I love that it’s cordless, which makes it so much more convenient to use anywhere in the kitchen without needing to find an outlet. It holds a charge really well, and I haven’t had to recharge it too often, even after using it multiple times. The design is sleek and modern, fitting comfortably in my hand, and it doesn’t take up too much space in the kitchen drawer. The smooth edge left by the can opener is a huge plus, as it prevents any cuts when handling the lid afterward. Overall, this is a wonderful, practical addition to my kitchen, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a hassle-free can-opening experience!

Save your money
Color: Black with Silver
Worked great the first few times and now it doesn’t work at all. It is charged and runs! It just doesn’t cut the cans open. Since I don’t eat a lot of can goods I missed the return window. Save your money!
