About The Book
Description
Author
Whilst recognising that distinctly different traditions exist within the study and practice of urban design this book advances an interdisciplinary and innovative approach which is of direct importance to understanding the urban forms conditions practices and processes. It enthuses and inspires users who are grappling with urban design research problems but who need 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. While each of the contributors presents a particular approach to researching the field sometimes focusing centrally on particular research methodologies others cutting across methods or focusing on theory all include discussion of actual research projects to illustrate their application to 'real world' problems. This book will be valuable to everyone from the informed undergraduate student about to embark on their first dissertation to PhD students and seasoned researchers immersed in methodological and conceptual complexity and wishing to compare available and appropriate methodological paths.
