Nicely illustrated. Recommended on rear jacket panel by Jane Jacobs: "The wonderful thing about Michael Hough's approach is its depth, below surface appearances, into the truly vital and shaping realms of procss, place, ecology, and aesthetic philosophy. What he is doing is not only important intellectually in our work with cities but can actually be translated into regulations, policies, and design.". 9780300045109 ISBN 0300045107.
