More about the book
The book presents a revolutionary perspective on urban planning, arguing that cities function as self-organizing systems. Juval Portugali draws on synergetics and detailed model calculations to explore the complexities of city dynamics. He highlights the historical evolution of urban planning and the challenges posed by modern megacities, emphasizing that traditional planning methods may no longer suffice. Through interdisciplinary connections, Portugali offers fresh insights into how we understand and engage with urban environments, making a compelling case for rethinking our approach to city development.
