Synopsis

The computer game SimCity may have had its best time, but professional urban simulation and gaming programmes that model the development and growth of a city are increasingly complex. Presented here in this illustrated publication are the results of research by the International New Town Institute that examines these developments in connection with urban strategic planning and the creation of new towns. Some ten chapters present a variety of essays and research, accompanied by a substantial body of plans and models. With contributions by Michelle Provoost, Alexander Lehnerer, Kayvan Karimi, Michael Batty and José Pinto Duarte.
