Sprawling Cities and Our Endangered Public Health (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Sprawl is an unsustainable pattern of growth that threatens to undermine the health of communities globally. The many adverse impacts of sprawl on the health of individuals, communities, and biological ecosystems are well documented. Architects have been rightly criticised for failing to grasp the aesthetic and functional challenge to create buildings and places that mitigate sprawl while simultaneously promoting healthier, active lifestyles in neighbourhoods and communities. Planners, architects, public health professionals, landscape architects, and a broad range of policy specialists will be able to apply the methods and tools presented here to counter unmitigated sprawl and to create architecture that promotes active, healthier lifestyles.
