In doing so it addresses climate in a variety of connotations. It looks to the nomadic behaviour patterns of the past for lessons for today's population unsettlement, and argues that as human survival will increasingly be linked directly to movement, the city can no longer be defined as a constrained space. The impacts of climate change must to be understood as a combination of the actual and the expected, and have to be addressed both practically and culturally. City Futures in an Age of Changing Climate looks at how cities can adapt and respond to the unsustainable conditions they are now facing. The book considers possible post-urban futures, exposing a range of very different urban forms, and addresses the concept of fragmentation; the breaking up of any coherent economic or cultural nucleic urban spaces. Urban planners, designers, development practitioners, and anyone seeking to understand what the future is likely to look like for our cities, and how to prepare for it, will find this an essential read"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 178-183) and index. 650 0 $a Urban ecology (Sociology) 650 0 $a Urbanization $x Environmental aspects. 650 0 $a Cities and towns $x Environmental aspects. $x Environmental aspects. 650 0 $a Urban policy $x Environmental aspects. 650 0 $a Sustainable urban development. 650 0 $a City planning $x Environmental aspects. 650 7 $a ARCHITECTURE / Urban & Land Use Planning. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Cities and towns $x Environmental aspects. $x Environmental aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00861786 650 7 $a City planning $x Environmental aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00862209 650 7 $a Sustainable urban development. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01744955 650 7 $a Urban ecology (Sociology) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01733718 650 7 $a Urban policy $x Environmental aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01162494 650 7 $a Urbanization $x Environmental aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01162728 650 7 $a StadtoÌkologie. $0 (DE-588)4077809-5 $2 gnd 650 7 $a Stadtentwicklung. $0 (DE-588)4056730-8 $2 gnd 650 7 $a Stadtplanung. $0 (DE-588)4056754-0 $2 gnd 650 7 $a Kommunalpolitik. $0 (DE-588)4073648-9 $2 gnd 650 7 $a KlimaaÌnderung. $0 (DE-588)4164199-1 $2 gnd 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231020011630.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=969C5AD6246D11E5A97E42B6DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
