Product Description
Product Description
- Provides a complex and integrated perspective on the field of urban design.
- Carefully structured, so that students will gain an understanding of the theoretical context from which urban design has emerged.
- Includes work by Manuel Castells, David Harvey, Christian Norberg–Schultz, Peter Marcuse and others.
From the Back Cover
The volume has been carefully structured to help students gain an understanding of the theoretical context from which urban design has emerged. At the same time, it promotes a particular theoretical paradigm, suggesting that urban design is best viewed as a branch of spatial political economy. The selection of articles advances this idea as far as possible, both in its organization and in its content.
The reader includes work from the past 30 years by such world famous authors as Manuel Castells and David Harvey, as well as writing by lesser known scholars which deserves a wider audience. The overall organization of the book is carefully explained in relation to the subject matter by the editor.
