“Confessions in a Crown Vic” is the story of professional displacement during the Great Recession, an Architect as Cab driver, while seeking Architecture work. It interviews Paolo Soleri the visionary Urban design architect, and the traffic engineer, Louis Lagomarsino, for Phoenix’s highways, and the author’s passengers’ marginalization for their lack of a car. It’s a journey through an Architect’s life, beginning with schooling, travels, design, internship, and practices in many genres of clientele from private to public projects for the U.S.P.S., U.S.A.F., and the U.S.A.C.O.E. It takes us through different cities and urban configurations. But most of all it takes us through history’s cycles of political change, the semantics of their origins, the delivery of designs, and the affects of expansion and colonialist attitudes in America. It’s a critique of Urban Sprawl, and the irrationality of relying on housing starts to determine a healthy economy. It examines Keynesian versus Classical economics, comparing them with the events of the last “American” century. He illuminates the American Dream’s unsustainable promise to even its poorest citizens, considering whether we can still re-materialize that dream out of its current mythological existence. Is this dream for everyone? Can we grow a culture based on the automobile and a limited fossil fuel economy? It challenges this dream’s configuration, while placing a heavy burden of responsibility for our economic demise on its mythical component, the greed that drove it, and the Sprawl that has burdened it.

This is a summary of what Contractors Exposed is and what the potential is for need and acceptance by not only the United States, by also the entire world. The book and the support of seminars, videos, and the internet provides for a powerful marketing tool for profit. First the book contains information found no where else. No other book has the principles provided here. It is concise, easy to read, and is written to be enjoyable by all people, whether they are rich or poor, whether they live in Maine or California, and whether or nor not they are found in a different country. Because it is principle oriented and not a how to do the actual construction concerning a individual project, it has equal value, for any sized project or interest and any cost factor.

The information contained is not taught in any school and cannot be found anywhere else. If properly marketed, this would be a must have for any homeowner, regardless of what the size or the project may be. This will do for residential and small commercial construction, what Bill Gates did for computers.

The bottom line is this will be the standard to go by once it is marketed and people know about it. Because of unique potential this has on a world wide basis, it is truly a rare find, and most needed by the masses.

I see this book addressing to anybody wanting to specialize or switch to kitchen design, to graduates of six-month certificate or one-year diploma in interior decoration, to anyone willing to pursue a kitchen design career path, and to cabinet makers wanting to change their everyday life and become something they always dreamed of: a designer!

I realised throughout my experience as a full-time kitchen designer how important the role of the designer is in kitchen industry business cycle. The designer is the interface between the company and the client and is the facilitator of the new business. With designer expertise and knowledge, he or she can retain more clients, sell kitchens at a better price, and thus generate more revenue for the company. This book can help kitchen-manufacturing managers to upskill their existing designers and train new ones in order to increase the company's profit...Being a kitchen designer is glamorous, is highly creative, is fun, and is, moreover, well paid!
