This book introduces the city as a collection of networks, and analyzes good city form using the latest scientific concepts such as fractals and scaling. A very different conception of sustainable cities emerges: more towards a traditional city of mixed uses and sizes, and away from the industrial monotonous model used in post World-War II planning. Meant for students as well as practicing planners and architects, this book presents the basis of a new way of thinking about sustainable urbanism from the structural point of view.
From the Author: This is a new printing for the US market, specially priced for students. The original European edition has not been available for some time in the US; instructors can once again assign this textbook for their course on urban design and planning.
