Sommario/riassunto

"Originally published in 1983. Attention is focused in this book on the principal functional, spatial and morphological changes which had taken place within West Germany's uniquely arranged mosaic of cities, towns and intervening rural areas during the postwar period. The topics covered here have been carefully selected as key foci of interest, and their thematic approach is supported by a large variety of detailed, local case studies. This title will be of interest to students of urban geography and urban studies. "--Provided by publisher.
