Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Oversized hardcover, sturdy vinyl / faux-leather boards, xl + 480pp, b&w photos, maps and plans in text, numerous tables, diagrams & graphs; with bibliography & index. Based on the author's thesis, University College, London. -- Missing the dust jacket. Ex-university library, marked "withdrawn": three external labels on boards (front & back & lower spine), two stamps on upper outer page edges, internal labels inside rear board, pencil inventory numbers on prelims. According to the date-due insert, the book was never checked out (appears uncirculated, pages remain in very good condition). Interior is clean and bright throughout, untanned, with unmarked text and firm binding; no foxing, no spotting of any kind. Clean and bright page edges externally. Minor wear to gilt lettering on spine; creases to lower spine. --- Traditional housing in African cities is an area that has been poorly served by architectural research. This volume, foreworded by Professor M.G. Smith and based on data drawn from the precolonial Nigeria and Morocco, proves very useful and instructive to architects, town planners, urban anthropologists and, indeed, to all those who are interested in traditional urban housing in African cities. The book consists of four parts. In the first three parts, each of the three towns is studied under six identical headings: context; land tenure and land use; demography; domestic groupings and the house; occupation and income; production, cost, and financing of houses. Part 4 comprises the comparison of the case studies and conclusions drawn from this comparison, appendices, bibliography and index. The study is illustrated with numerous tables, diagrams and graphs, as well as 42 plans and maps and 23 black-and-white photographs.…
