Description
Essential reading for students and practitioners of urban design, this collection of essays introduces the six dimensions of urban design through a range of the most important classic and contemporary key texts. Urban design as a form of place making has become an increasingly significant area of academic endeavour, of public policy and professional practice.

The essays, including works by Gehl, Jacobs and Cullen, are presented substantially in their original form, and the truly accessible format will enable readers to form a deeper practical understanding of urban design. Including a range of writing from the 1960s to contemporary work, this book offers complete coverage of the development of the subject.
