Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Cities around the world are working to build more livable environments, better-quality public spaces, more resilient and sustainable urban economies, lower resource impacts, greater social equity, and other goals of a ¿new urban agenda.¿ In this process, the American movement advanced by the Congress for the New Urbanism has been unquestionably influential, if sometimes controversial. This volume presents a distillation of key essays by CNU proponents in their own words, as well as perspectives from allied thinkers and other outside observers. The goal is not only to examine the specific American organization and its ideas, but also the broader movement toward ¿a new urbanism¿ by whatever name. It reflects the work of Peter Elmlund and the Ax:son Johnson Foundation (and their Future of Places partnership with UN-Habitat and others). Over two decades, their Stockholm-based Urban/City Research programme has sought to promote a more in-depth critical examination of the important issues raised by this ¿new urbanist discourse.¿Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 356 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -All human-made structures are ¿incomplete,¿ according to author Michael Mehaffy ¿ that is, they embody abstract information that necessarily leaves out essential aspects of reality. This important concept from mathematics and philosophy has new relevance for today¿s human challenges, Mehaffy argues. For ¿incompleteness¿ need not be a problem ¿ but we must understand its nature, and be prepared to work toward a ¿right adjustment of the process of abstraction,¿ in the words of philosopher Alfred North Whitehead. But if we misunderstand the nature of incompleteness, we are likely to create enormous harm to ourselves, and to our world ¿ as indeed we are doing today. But Mehaffy's conclusion is a hopeful one: We do have the means to transition to a richer way of life, with healthier, more durable kinds of settlements. If we understand how to work with its limitations, we can learn to live with, and even thrive with, an ¿incomplete architecture.¿ 276 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The 1977 book A Pattern Language was a landmark in the design world, introducing a methodology that has become influential across many fields. Among them are software and ¿design patterns,¿ and important spinoff technologies like wiki (the basis of Wikipedia) and Agile Methodology. Yet curiously, the field where pattern methodology began ¿ the built environment ¿ has lagged conspicuously. As one remedy, a number of long-time collaborators with the original book¿s lead author have followed the explicit guidance of the book, and developed a new collection of 80 patterns offering tools and strategies for a new era of urban challenges. This new collection emerged in part from a five-year collaboration with UN-Habitat to address new urban challenges, including rapid urbanization, slum upgrading, sustainable urbanism, and new technologies. Together with the launch of an online companion pattern ¿repository¿ (available at npl.wiki) this volume aims to expand the capacity of pattern languages in support of a hopeful new era of open-source, human-centered, life-enriching technology. 368 pp. Englisch.
