Today, with the world's urban population surpassing three billion people, urban design has become more crucial than ever. Indeed, the concerns that initially brought leading architects and city planners together-including concerns over sprawl, pollution, and aging infrastructure-have only intensified over the past half century. In Urban Design, Alex Krieger and William S. Saunders have assembled prominent figures in architecture, planning, and landscape designCity planningArchitectural designElectronic books.City planning.Architectural design.307.76711.4Krieger Alex1951-938280Saunders William S286193MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910454070203321Urban design2113765UNINA02748nam 2200589Ia 450 991083051620332120230721030052.01-282-11203-197866121120340-470-06113-80-470-06123-5(CKB)1000000000357389(EBL)291273(OCoLC)181821112(SSID)ssj0000216101(PQKBManifestationID)11199422(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000216101(PQKBWorkID)10194422(PQKB)10757276(MiAaPQ)EBC291273(EXLCZ)99100000000035738919870521d2007 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrOrganic reaction mechanisms2003An annual survey covering the literature dated January to December 2003[electronic resource] /edited by A.C.
