Book Description
Before this, I always wondered why God made me walk on those difficult roads as every challenge almost tore my life and my family apart. I thought I was unlucky. As time went by, I was glad that I was given a valuable opportunity to taste all of those bittersweet experiences because they made me emotionally and spiritually strong and wiser. I believe that one of the main reasons why God made me experience all of those thorny paths is because perhaps God wants me to share those life lessons with others in order to help them not to give up when life challenges them to the maximum. I hope this book will motivate the readers and give them enough light and hope to believe that every obstacle is indeed a blessing in disguise if we are willing to kneel and and learn because life itself is a novel in which you are its best writer.

Book Description
"There is a sense, in which the demolition that is taking place through the war has not yet gone far enough." This astonishing statement was made in the thick of the Second World War (1942) by the influential American social and cultural critic Lewis Mumford. In most of the cities hit hardest by the air-raids, something akin to planning euphoria did in fact break out at that time. In all the countries of Europe, the devastation of the cities was acclaimed as a liberating factor. In this volume, historians and architects from various cultures analyse the ideas and convictions on which post-war urban planning was modelled. To illustrate the points, a number of towns and cities in different countries are discussed with reference to the planning schemes proposed for them and other documents.
