Its vantage is a plea to establish a frame of reference for radically comparative urban studies positioned between geography and archaeology. Based in multidisciplinary social and spatial theory, a critical realist understanding of the boundaries that compose built space is operationalised by a mapping practice utilising Geographical Information Systems (GIS). Benjamin N. Vis gives a precise account of how BLT Mapping can be applied to detailed historical, reconstructed, contemporary, and archaeological urban plans, exemplified by sixteenth- to twenty-first century Winchester (UK) and Classic Maya Chunchucmil (Mexico). This account demonstrates how the functional and experiential difference between compact western and tropical dispersed cities can be explored. The methodological development of Cities Made of Boundaries will appeal to readers interested in the comparative social analysis of built environments, and those seeking to expand the evidence-base of design options to structure urban life and development. 517 $aCities Made of Boundaries 606 $aArchitecture$2bicssc 606 $aTheory of architecture$2bicssc 606 $aArchitectural structure & design$2bicssc 606 $aArchitecture: professional practice$2bicssc 606 $aUrban communities$2bicssc 606 $aSociology & anthropology$2bicssc 606 $aSociology$2bicssc 606 $aSociology: family & relationships$2bicssc 606 $aSociology: work & labour$2bicssc 608 $aMaps. 610 $aBoundary Line Type Mapping 610 $aCities 610 $aBuilt space 610 $aBuilt environment 615 7$aArchitecture 615 7$aTheory of architecture 615 7$aArchitectural structure & design 615 7$aArchitecture: professional practice 615 7$aUrban communities 615 7$aSociology & anthropology 615 7$aSociology 615 7$aSociology: family & relationships 615 7$aSociology: work & labour 676 $a307.76 700 $aVis$b Benjamin N$4auth$0953418 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910831900103321 996 $aCities Made of Boundaries$92155574 997 $aUNINA
