�ber diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

The Meaning of the Built Environment is a lively illustrated study of the meanings of everyday buildings for their users. Professor Rapoport uses examples and vignettes, drawn from many cultures and historical eras as well as contemporary America, to explicate a new framework for understanding how the built environment comes to have meaning, both for individual people and whole societies.

`...this book fills a significant gap: it introduces the notion of environmental meaning so clearly that no reader will doubt the basic premise that the environmment holds meaning as part of a cultural system of symbols, and influences our actions and our determinations of social order.′ -- Design Book Review, Fall 1984

`Rapoport does a thorough job indeed. He presents a most useful text with, in his usual way, a splendid wealth of Rapoport examples.′ -- Town Planning Review, Vol 5 No 4, 1984
