How does John respond to his “at risk” coming of age in New York? What role does creativity play in helping him find his voice a
Valentin [98]

Answer:

Adams is known for a theory of risk compensation, that states that a 'risk thermostat' guides much human behavior. Humans experiencing a 'safe' lifestyle seek out risky activities; but when doing them, overcompensate before returning to safety. This behaviour operates like a thermostat, regulating human behavior. He argues that because of the thermostat effect, banning risky activity will not work completely, and risk -seeking accompanies many aspects of everyday life. He spoke on this at the Shared Space conference held in Ipswich in June, 2005, where in his talk titled "Risk Compensation versus the obedient automaton theory of human behaviour" he discussed how understanding risk compensation was essential to the understanding of why shared space principles work for the design of public spaces such as road layouts in towns.[1]

He has also coined the term and written extensively on the phenomenon of hypermobility, particular the misplaced belief that new road building solves traffic problems, rather than worsening them.

Adams has not always voiced mainstream views on climate change. He has been critical of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and has praised "reputable scientists who react sceptically to the “hockey stick” peddled by Sir John Houghton and the IPCC."[2]

Adams was a member of the advisory committee to the Anti-Concorde Project. When working in central London he was a daily cyclist, occasionally writing on cycling issues.

Analyze the theme of disillusionment in Fitzgerald’s "Winter Dreams."
dlinn [17]
Winter Dreams" just like The Great Gatsby is one of Fitzgerald's diatribes against the Old Money class in American society and its seeming false offer of equality to those who believe in the American Dream. In the story, Dexter observes the wealthy golfers for whom he caddies and believes that if he works hard enough, he can one day be just like them.  He envisions scenes where he drives up in luxurious cars and the wealthy surround him simply to listen to him speak.

Dexter does work hard and becomes wealthy, but once he makes it to the top, he realizes that the dream has become corrupted (just like Daisy is the corrupted version of Gatsby's dream and can never live up to his expectations).

Both of these works present Fitzgerald's frustration with his own life and attempts to achieve the American Dream.  He, like Dexter and Gatsby, became interested in a wealthy socialite (Zelda) and was looked down upon by her social class and family.  When he finally did win Zelda and marry her, he endured a tumultuous relationship with her where their wealth was unstable and their faithfulness to one another questionable.  He believed (as he demonstrates in "Winter Dream") that the Old Money portion of society corrupts the moral, decent Midwesterner.
