Thinking, planning and urbanism

"' 'Thinking planning and urbanism' reconstructs the process of an urban core area redevelopment in order to show how city planning was involved in the decisions taken... This book exposes the cracks in planning itself, revealing how its theories - based on the premise that space is a social construction - do not help practising planners, who need a broader understanding of urbanism in which to find and persuasively argue for creative solutions to pedestrian problems."--P.
