Recenzii
’This book explores a very wide range of recent research into urban design emanating from the diverse and prestigious Bartlett School at UCL. Edited by Matthew Carmona, who provides a mainstream perspective on divergent approaches, this book will encourage graduate students in urban design everywhere to explore simultaneously new research perspectives and techniques.’ John Punter, Cardiff University, UK ’This well-illustrated volume edited by Matthew Carmona lifts the state of the art in urban design research and scholarship to a new height. This primer offers intriguing new methods and technologies for conducting research on urban form, urbanism and the processes of urban design. It is an exciting and unique contribution to the expanding scope of theory and practice - a must read for students, scholars and practitioners.’ Tridib Banerjee, University of Southern California, USA 'This book brings together a rich and varied set of approaches for not only understanding and analysing existing urban situations but also how to go about starting the design process for a new urban layout ... Highlights of the book are the many essays which propose completely new approaches for urban design ... (it) is a fascinating gathering of the recent research UCL’s many built environment departments (and) will interest anyone with a passion for urban design. This is a must read for those working in the field and a ’go to’ reference work for students'. RIAS Quarterly

Descriere
This book advances an interdisciplinary and innovative approach to urban design, whilst recognising that distinctly different traditions exist within its study and practice. It informs users who are grappling with urban design research problems, but who need the inspiration to move from idea to methodological approach. Through the work of 32 urban researchers from the arts, sciences and social sciences, it demonstrates a wide range of problems and approaches and shows how the diverse range of complementary approaches can come together to provide a holistic understanding to the design of cities.
