Book Description Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 320 pages. Spiro Kostof, the renowned architectural historian and chronicler of urban form, presents a universal history of th e elements of cities: streets, public places, urban divisions, an d the borders of city and countryside. This is both an independen t study and a companion volume to Professor Kostof's book The Cit y Shaped which dealt with cities as complete entities. Now he fol lows the evolution of their components, and traces the story righ t up to the present, showing how the issues remain fresh and enga ge with our own day, often in unexpected ways. He also discusses urban process: the effect on cities of natural disasters (such as the Great Fire of London and the Lisbon earthquake), war and com prehensive redevelopment, compared with traditional patterns of i ncremental growth and change. This is at once an exercise in arch itectural and social history, a case-study for the present, and a pointer for the future. Seller Inventory # 992b
