Windows Upon Planning History explores how changing perceptions and ways of seeing cities have shaped urbanism across Europe, Australia, and the USA. A team of 13 distinguished authors examines the evolution of city-making ideologies from modern to post-modern times, shedding light on topics such as Berlin's historic apartment districts, planning under dictatorship, and the fate of post-war modern cities. With over 45 images and a foreword by Stephen V. Ward, this book offers a comprehensive look at the history of planning, appealing to those interested in architecture, cities, and urban development.
