Krátky popis
In this classic text, Jane Jacobs set out to produce an attack on
current city planning and rebuilding and to introduce new
principles by which these should be governed. The result is one of
the most stimulating books on cities ever written. Throughout the
post-war period, planners temperamentally unsympathetic to cities
have been let loose on our urban environment.Inspired by the ideals
of the Garden City or Le Corbusier's Radiant City, they have dreamt
up ambitious projects based on self-contained neighbourhoods,
super-blocks, rigid 'scientific' plans and endless acres of grass.
Yet they seldom stop to look at what actually works on the ground.
The real vitality of cities, argues Jacobs, lies in their
diversity, architectural variety, teeming street life and human
scale.It is only when we appreciate such fundamental realities that
we can hope to create cities that are safe, interesting and
economically viable, as well as places that people want to live in.
'Perhaps the most influential single work in the history of town
planning... Jacobs has a powerful sense of narrative, a lively wit,
a talent for surprise and the ability to touch the emotions as well
as the mind' New York Times Book Review
