The history of urbanization was inseparably connected with the
exploitation of the environment and the subjugation of rivers.
Today we experience the effects of this expansion in the form of
escalating water problems. The book outlines the processes of
transformation of anthropogenic, natural and waterborne structures
in urban environment, which were presented in three historical
phases: the period of Respect, Conquest and Return. River-friendly
cities require integrated water management in entire catchments
from the source to the recipient. The key to the success of the
Return strategy is the recovery of space for greenery and water,
responsible spatial planning, circular economy and rainwater
management as well as continuous raising of awareness of the whole
society.
