BUILDING SUSTAINABLE CITIES OF THE FUTURE - JUS...

This book draws upon the expertise of academic researchers  urban planners and architects to
explore the challenge of building the sustainable cities of the future. It addresses this
challenge by considering current cities and those of the near future  and creates a picture of
the sustainable city from the bottom up. Individual chapters cover topics such as transport 
energy supply  sustainable urbanism and promoting social equality in large infrastructure
projects. Real-world examples are presented to illustrate how systems thinking is used to
integrate different components of a city so as to ensure that the whole is more sustainable
than its parts. Written in an accessible style  this book is intended for general readers as
much as it is for students and researchers interested in sustainable cities and related topics.
It is also ideal for urban planners seeking best-practice guidelines for sustainable urban
development.
