" section four: Order and Disorder: explains politics and policy; planning and conflict; law and order; surveillance and terror;
An accessible guide to all areas of urban studies; the text offers both a contemporary cutting edge reflection and measured historical and geographical reflection on urban studies. It will be essential reading for students of any discipline interested in the city as an object of study. (20080211)
