"Designing Cities" is the first "reader" to be published in the
thriving field of urban design. It has been assembled to appeal to
a broad range of readers interested in how the design of cities
comes about.
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.
