Synopsis

Cities and Natural Process is a book for all concerned with the future of our cities, their design and sustainability, and our quality of life within them.
Michael Hough describes how economic and technological values have squeezed any real sense of nature out of the modern city, the ways in which this has led to
a divisive separation of countryside and city, has wasted much of the city's resources, and has shaped an urban aesthetic which is sharply at odds with both natural and social processes. Against this is set an alternative history of ecological values informing proven approaches to urban design which work with^n nature in the city.
