Cities for the New Millennium is the outcome of a joint conference
held in Salford in July 2000 by the Royal Institute of British
Architects and the University of Cambridge's Department of
Architecture. It tackles these questions in the light of the Urban
Task Force's report about the future of Britain's cities and
communities, but sets them in an international and historical
context. Professionals - architects, engineers and developers as
well as academics from different countries and disciplines here
lavish their expertise on issues of transportation, density, land
use, risk and energy saving; others present urban-scale buildings
or landscapes that have been judged inspirational or inventive.
This book, therefore, is not just about theories of urbanism. It
reveals how co-operation and debate between different parties and
professions can illuminate the creative kind of urban development
we should be aiming for.
