Public–private partnerships (PPPs) are arrangements between government and private actors with the objective of providing public infrastructure, facilities and services. Three fundamental questions frame the use of PPPs at the local level: What do PPPs look like? What gives rise to the use of PPPs? And, what are the outcomes of PPPs? The articles in this book provide insightful answers to these questions. In addition, the contributions in the book identify lines of research that invite further investigation, namely: problems related to the degree of risk transfer; the challenges posed by renegotiation; and evaluation of PPPs’ results. The content of this book will be of interest for scholars, policy analysts, and policy makers.This book was published as a special issue of Local Government Studies.

This Element presents a framework for analyzing the complexities of contracting, how these vary across circumstances, the ways contract managers can address challenges, and the skills of contract managers. The framework is grounded on central concepts. Market frictions are underlying imperfections that cause common contracting problems; contract management activities are the tasks and procedures that contract managers perform to prepare and execute the purchase; and skills are the ability to perform contract management activities that identify and mitigate frictions. These concepts are interdependent - market frictions can influence the efficacy of contract management activities, activities may reduce or increase the presence of frictions, and skills may influence both the choice and effectiveness of activities in addressing contracting challenges. Omitting any of these components is likely to result in misleading accounts of the root causes and potential solutions to contracting challenges.

This book offers a comprehensive survey of shared-memory synchronization, with an emphasis on “systems-level” issues. It includes sufficient coverage of architectural details to understand correctness and performance on modern multicore machines, and sufficient coverage of higher-level issues to understand how synchronization is embedded in modern programming languages.The primary intended audience for this book is “systems programmers”—the authors of operating systems, library packages, language run-time systems, concurrent data structures, and server and utility programs. Much of the discussion should also be of interest to application programmers who want to make good use of the synchronization mechanisms available to them, and to computer architects who want to understand the ramifications of their design decisions on systems-level code.

This Brief discusses the current policy environment in which the United States space program operates and proposes an industry-government partnership as a long-term policy solution. Since the Reagan administration, American space policy has increasingly sought to involve private sector operators for space. The culmination of this trend has been the Obama administration’s policy of private sector transportation of crew and cargo to the International Space Station on behalf of NASA. This book proposes that future administrations extend this policy to other areas of space, including energy, in orbit manufacturing, asteroid mining, and the exploration of the Moon and Mars. The book further demonstrates how these activities can stabilize the global political system and lead to a dramatic increase in global economic growth. Finally, the book addresses one of the most important and critical issues currently facing humanity—the need for a viable, baseload, and unlimited supply of totally clean energy. An extremely cogent analysis of the interrelationship between space activity and the terrestrial economy, this book showcases the political and economic potential of the medium of space and adds greatly to the existing literature in the field. This book will be of interest to students of political science and strategic studies as well as members of the military, government space agencies, and the international aerospace industry.

The Headstone and the Horizon is a devotional journey through twelve images of faith — the flame, the scroll, the crack, the compass, the wind, the table, the mantle, the lamp, and the headstone. Each chapter blends theology with story, offering prayerful reflections that invite readers to pause, listen, and respond. Trevor Myles Brown writes not as a distant scholar, but as a son, father, and friend who has walked through both gardens and graves. His voice is gentle, honest, and deeply pastoral — guiding readers to notice God's presence in ordinary places and to hear His whisper amid questions. At the close of every chapter, reflection questions and space for notes turn the book into a keepsake of your own journey. This isn't a manual of certainty; it's a companion for the weary and the wondering, the builders and the blessers, and all who have stood between grief and hope and asked, "e;Is God still here?"e; Trevor answers with conviction: He is. And He always will be.

The Fire Within, A devotional journey of breath, flame, and sacred struggle. The Fire Within is a gentle companion for those who carry a flickering flame in a world of wind and weight. Through poetic reflections and Scripture-infused meditations, this devotional explores the sacred rhythm of breath and battle—the quiet tension between divine calling and human vulnerability. Each chapter invites readers to linger, reflect, and rekindle the spark within. The tone is tender and invitational, offering space to breathe rather than demand. Whether you feel strong or fragile, certain or searching, this book speaks to the soul's quiet places. The Fire Within is not meant to confuse or confront—it is meant to companion you. Let its pages illuminate, comfort, and bless.

The Flame That Walks is a devotional call to embodied obedience. In a world that prefers smoke, this book invites flame-bearers to walk lit—through workplaces, injustice, silence, and suffering. With poetic rhythm and theological depth, Trevor Myles Brown commissions readers to live as breath-carriers and blessing-givers in every space they enter. This is not theory—it's incarnation. Not performance—it's presence. Not heresy—it's hunger. The flame still walks. And so will you.
