Don't judge a book by it's cover!
Cover page was tainted with marks. Didn't expect that. But the book is a must buy, especially for Architecture Students.

Great urban design book
Great book. His language is very clear and concise. Theories are timeless.

All good
A complex read which at first seems flawless in its interpretation of the urban scene but as a comprehensive guide to imagability it falls short as a result of it's relative failure to consider senses other than optic

Calificación sobre la versión kindle, no sobre el contenido
Está mal alineado o algo, no se entiende. Los pies de página o las partes con mas de una columna están movidas.
