Description

Explore the lasting influence of Jane Jacobs and her revolutionary 1961 work The Death and Life of Great American Cities through this comprehensive collection published by Routledge.

Drawing on cross-disciplinary and transnational approaches, the book analyses her profound impact on urban planning theory and its practical consequences for planning professionals worldwide.
