Contemporary architecture, and the culture it reflects dependent as it is on fossil fuels, has contributed to the cause and necessity of a burgeoning green process that emerged over the past half century.

Associating social justice with landscape is not new, yet the twenty-first century's heightened threats to landscape and their impact on both human and, more generally, nature's habitats necessitate novel intellectual tools to address such challenges.

While most of the existing literature on community gardens and urban agriculture share a tendency towards either an advocacy view or a rather dismissive approach on the grounds of the co-optation of food growing, self-help and voluntarism to the neoliberal agenda, this collection investigates and reflects on the complex and sometimes contradictory nature of these initiatives.

Cybersecurity in Robotic Autonomous Vehicles introduces a novel intrusion detection system (IDS) specifically designed for AVs, which leverages data prioritisation in CAN IDs to enhance threat detection and mitigation.
The Routledge Companion to Modernity, Space and Gender reframes the discussion of modernity, space and gender by examining how "e;modernity"e; has been defined in various cultural contexts of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, how this definition has been expressed spatially and architecturally, and what effect this has had on women in their everyday lives.
