The Form of Cities offers readers a considered theoretical introduction to the art of designing cities.

*Demonstrates that cities are replete with symbolic values, collective memory, association and conflict. *Proposes a new theoretical understanding of urban design, based in political economy. *Demonstrates different ways of conceptualising the city, whether through aesthetics or the prism of gender, for example. *Written in an engaging and jargon-free style, but retains a sophisticated interpretative edge. *Complements Designing Cities by the same author (Blackwell, 2003).

Alexander R. Cuthbert is Professor of Planning and Urban Development at the University of New South Wales, Sydney. He has studied architecture, urban design, urban planning, and political science and has a doctorate from the London School of Economics and Political Science. His previous publications include Designing Cities (Blackwell, 2003), which serves as a prequel to this book.
