Book Synopsis Garden Cities of To-Morrow by : Ebenezer Howard
Download or read book Garden Cities of To-Morrow written by Ebenezer Howard and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-01-11 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1898 as To-Morrow: A peaceful path to reform, "the book", writes F.J. Osborn "holds a unique place in town planning literature, is cited in all planning bibliographies, stands on the shelves of the more important libraries, and is alluded to in most books on planning; yet most of the popular writers on planning do not seem to have read it - or if they have read it, to remember what it says." The book led directly to two experiments in town-founding that by imitation, and imitation of imitation, have had a profound influence on practical urban development throughout the world. The book was responsible for the introduction of the term Garden City in numbers of languages - Cite-Jardin, Gartenstadt, Ciudad-jardin, Tuinstad - and set into motion ideas that have helped transform the scientific and political outlook on town structure and town growth. With urban renewal and the development of suburban communities as features of the contemoprary American scene, Garden cities of To-Morrow becomes "must" reading. In the words of Lewis Mumford: "This is not merely a book for Technicians: above all it is a book for citizens, for the people whose actively expressed needs, desires and interests should guide the planner and administrator at every turn." This book was first published in it's current form in 1965.

Book Synopsis 21st Century Garden Cities of To-Morrow by : Philip Ross
Download or read book 21st Century Garden Cities of To-Morrow written by Philip Ross and published by Hawthorn Press. This book was released on 2015-04-28 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The two authors complement each other beautifully, one a visionary and gutsy politician, the other a gifted academic with a deep rooted social conscience. With the benefit of a century of post Letchworth Garden City knowledge and the lessons of two World Wars, their timely released book re-brands the Garden City from a social as well as a technical point of view. It says it's a manifesto for 21st Century Garden Cities of To-Morrow, but it could equally be a manifesto for decent human urban survival on our cherished Planet. It concentrates on the role of each citizen - his or her responsibilities and opportunities. It advocates restoring basic human values back to ordinary people, away from the `I'm doing you a favour' private pro-bono benefaction and/or cash-starved governmental institutions that seem to know the cost of everything, but the value of nothing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Cities to-Day and to-Morrow: A Survey of Planning and Zoning Progress in the United States The planning of cities and regions has become a recognized community activity and responsibility within less than two decades. To plan intelligently and comprehensively we need to know many things which are now only half understood, and we need to compare, analyze, and appraise experience before we can be sure of basic principles. The natural unorganized power of our cities for the adaptation of means to ends has proved entirely inadequate to cope with the present accelerated rate of change. City planning, however, cannot wait for research. Many communities are on the point of being, as it were, overwhelmed on the field of battle. Those charged with administering municipal government must plan their tactics and even their major strategy under fire. This situation has forced cities and city planners to make decisions on insufficient data, - to use weapons fashioned from opportunistic facts rather than from facts scientifically chosen and wrought out. Only in the last three or four years have arisen the beginnings of a more penetrating comparative scrutiny of methods now employed and an appraisal of elements of success or failure in their application. Before we can choose the most promising subjects of research, - the subjects most likely to furnish ammunition immediately usable in the fight against congestion, against unbalanced distribution of urban population and unwholesome urban environment, - it is essential to know what experiments are being made in the cities of the United States and what results have come from specific lines of action in dealing with specific situations. We should guard ourselves, however, against producing voluminous compilations of ignorant opinions, or tabulations and listings of undigested or insignificant information. Harvard University made a grant from the Milton Fund for Research to the authors of the present book for "a survey and analysis of city planning and zoning progress in the United States."
