商品簡介
For a decade, Suburban Nation has given voice to a growing movement in North America to put an end to suburban sprawl and replace the last century's automobile-based settlement patterns with a return to more traditional planning. Founders of the Congress for the New Urbanism, Andres Duany and Elizabeth Plater-Zyberk are at the forefront of the movement, and even their critics, such as Fred Barnes in The Wall Street Journal, acknowledge Suburban Nation as "the bible of urbanists." A lively lament about the failures of postwar planning, this is also that rare book that offers solutions. This tenth anniversary edition includes new introductions by the authors.
