The environmental aspect of cities is nowadays well recognized as a
cri- cal element of urban development, management and regeneration.
There are various environmental issues related to cities, and they
have been a- lyzed in an individualized manner. Many types of
technologies, such as wastewater treatment, have been developed to
solve particular envir- mental problems. However, many of these
problems are related to each other, and social and economic aspects
are also important for urban reg- eration. A holistic view
combining knowledge of various urban environmental f- tors such as
water, heat, energy, air, materials and waste, and a practical
approach based on such understandings are essential to manage
contem- rary urban environmental issues, from a local scale to a
global scale. The University of Tokyo has been conducting the 21st
Century COE (C- ters of Excellence) Program on Sustainable Urban
Regeneration. Transd- ciplinary courses have been offered for
graduate students from the depa- ments of Urban Engineering, Civil
Engineering and Architecture to present a holistic view of urban
regeneration. This book is based on the contents of the
transdisciplinary course on en- ronmental management and
technology. I hope that its content will be u- ful for
undergraduate and graduate students and for experts and policy
makers in developed and developing countries. Shinichiro Ohgaki
