Understanding Urbanism presents built environment students with the latest approaches to
studying urbanism. The book is written in an accessible and easy-to-understand format by
leading urban academics and practitioners with decades of teaching and practical experience. As
students move through the chapters they will develop a critical understanding of the different
ways architects urban and social planners urban designers heritage professionals engineers
and other built environment professionals design our cities. Importantly the book shows how
and why the built environment professional of the future will need to work within the
Indigenous context of cities in countries like Australia New Zealand the United States and
Canada.
