Krátky popis
Compassionate, bracingly indignant, and keenly detailed, a
monumental work that provides an essential framework for assessing
the vitality of all cities.The most refreshing, provacative,
stimulating and exciting study of this [great problem] which I have
seen. It fairly crackles with bright honesty and common sense.
--The New York TimesA direct and fundamentally optimistic
indictment of the short-sightedness and intellectual arrogance that
has characterized much of urban planning in this century, The Death
and Life of Great American Cities has, since its first publication
in 1961, become the standard against which all endeavors in that
field are measured. In prose of outstanding immediacy, Jane Jacobs
writes about what makes streets safe or unsafe, about what
constitutes a neighborhood, and what function it serves within the
larger organism of the city, about why some neighborhoods remain
impoverished while others regenerate themselves. She writes about
the salutary role of funeral parlors and tenement windows, the
dangers of too much development money and too little diversity.
