Description

This collection of edited papers forms part of the Compact City Series, creating a sister volume to The Compact City (1996) and Achieving Sustainable Urban Form and extending the debate to developing countries. This new book examines and evaluates the merits and defects of compact city approaches in the context of developing countries in Africa, Asia and Latin America. Issues of theory, policy and practice relating to sustainability of urban form are examined by a wide range of international academics and practitioners.
