| Summary: | This book gathers together the work, thoughts and analyses of eleven theorists whose ideas can be applied to the apprehension of urban spaces, their processes and contexts. It presents a socio-spatial relationship that emerges from various perspectives, including an urban analytic return to the most important lessons learned from 20th century urban development. Through a European context examining cities such as Amsterdam, Barcelona, Hamburg, Berlin, Krakow, Dublin and Malmø it demonstrates that work is being accomplished via many strategies and tools for developing urban spatial quality, and features texts by such notable writers as Jane Jacobs, Richard Sennett, Umberto Eco and Henri Lefebvre. |
