Description

In this brilliant, controversial, attack on the ways in which architecture and urban planning - the sacred cows of liberalism - are used as a means to prevent radical change and to perpetuate oppression in the cities, Robert Goodman (see back of jacket) provides a moving and detailed account of how these professions fail to provide for the people they claim to serve, and suggests alternatives in which architecture and urban planning can become vital tools for radical change.
