Synopsis

This book traces the evolution of town planning from its Medieval roots, through its neglect during the Industrial Revolution, and into the 20th Century. The author describes the social and economic problems that resulted from the rapid, unplanned growth of cities during this period, which led to the development of town planning as a way to improve the quality of life for urban dwellers. The book explores the different approaches to town planning that have been adopted over time, from the grand designs of the Renaissance to the more pragmatic and community-focused approaches of the present day. It also examines the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead for town planning in the 21st century, as cities continue to grow and face new challenges such as climate change and sustainability. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the history, theory, and practice of town planning, and it will be of interest to anyone who is concerned about the future of our cities.
