Autor J. Coaffee, D. Murakami Wood, P. Rogers, Kenneth A. Loparo
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 14 noi 2008
This book examines the practice of urban resilience past and present, drawing on deeper global historical sources and detailed case-studies of contemporary Britain. It argues that resilience is neither new nor necessarily about protecting ordinary people, but part of a long struggle over the control of cities.
