Remaking Metropolis

<p><em>Remaking Metropolis</em> examines examples of both urban decay and destruction as well as urban rebirth. It shows why particular approaches were successful or did not achieve their objectives. By bringing together innovative approaches to urban living from across the world and by demonstrating how local initiatives can contribute to global solutions this book establishes a framework in which to evaluate current and future developments for urban change and to stimulate a reassessment of urban redevelopment and policies. </p>
