Signs exist as fundamental markers of the urban landscape. Whether
in the form of street signs offering directions, the airbrushed
promises of advertising media or the vandalized detournements of
street art, signs pervade urban spaces and provide a tangible
'text' upon which the logics of both cities and ourselves are
written. Cities of Signs charts the way that signs exist as key
elements of contemporary urban space, and explores what it means to
live within these spaces, amongst cities of signs. This refreshing
take on the way that urban space is lived and experienced is a
timely contribution to the literature in urban studies, sociology
and education alike. In decoding the cultural production at play in
urban environments, Cities of Signs presents a dynamic approach to
understanding how culture is produced and consumed within the
cityscape.
