With increased and fully updated content and case study material, Urban Regeneration in the UK, Second Edition continues to provide a systematic guide to the most dramatic transformation of our urban landscape since post-war reconstruction. This new edition has been fully revised to include: – improved pedagogical features, including an expanded glossary and increased visuals, as well as key learning points, useful web sites, and further reading – more content on local sustainability and issues linked to climate change – a new chapter, Scaling Up, which examines how regeneration operates when considering very large schemes, such as the London 2012 Olympics.
The text draws together a mass of information around key themes in governance, sustainability, competition, and design – from policy reports to academic studies – into a single coherent text, making this essential reading for anyone studying or working in the field of urban regeneration and planning.
