Over recent decades, the historico-geographical approach to urban
morphology has been prominent in the debate on the physical form of
our cities and on the agents and processes shaping that form over
time. With origins in the work of the geographer M.R.G. Conzen,
this approach has been systematically developed by researchers in
different parts of the world since the 1960s. This book argues that
J.W.R. Whitehand structured an innovative and comprehensive school
of urban morphological thought grounded in the invaluable basis
provided by Conzen. It identifies the development of several
dimensions of the concepts of "fringe belt" and "morphological
region" and the systematic exploration of the themes of "agents of
change," "comparative studies" and "research and practice" as key
contributions by Whitehand to this school of thought. The book
presents contributions from leading international experts in the
field addressing these major issues.
