Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. 'This book re-addresses the concepts of neighbourhood and community in a refreshing and challenging way. It will be of immense benefit, not only to town planners but also to al those professional and voluntary groups and politicians who seek to create the new communities of tomorrow' From the Foreword by Jed Griffiths, Past President of the Royal Town Planning Institute. There is widespread support for the principle of creating more sustainable communities, but much hazy, wishful-thinking about what this might mean in practice. In reality, we witness more the death of local neighbourhoods than their creation or rejuvenation, reflecting an increasingly mobile, privatized and commodified society. Sustainable Communities examines the practicalities of re-inventing neighbourhoods. It is neither an idealistic, utopian tract nor a designer's manual, but is, rather, a serious attempt to address the real issues. This collection of expert contributions: * examines the nature of local community and methods of building social capital * presents the findings of a world-wide survey of eco-neighbourhoods and eco-villages with case studies from the United Kingdom, Europe, America and Australia * develops a fresh perspective on the planning and design of neighbourhoods in urban areas, based on the eco-system approach * explores practical programmes for local resource management and the implications for community-based decision-making * provides a detailed appendix listing current eco-village and eco-neighbourhood schemes by country Written by an interdisciplinary team of social and environmental scientists, town planners and urban designers, this is a thought-provoking and important contribution to both the theory and practice of the development of sustainable communities.

Paperback. Condizione: New. A young woman called Robyn Ghorra, living life to the full in the Gloucestershire town of Stroud, is subjected to a life-changing accident. While lost to this world in a coma, she finds herself transported as if by magic to a future era. It is not a chance transfer. Rather part of a planned experiment that only slowly becomes clear to her. The place she finds herself in is strangely familiar, her own home territory, but transformed. She is progressively able to explore what feels like a utopian society. Her background as an urban designer enables her to grasp the changed nature of town and country, and how crises of climate, biodiversity, energy, technology, unhealthy environments and social inequality have been tackled and transformed. However, there is a dark undertow beneath this glittering surface. Catastrophic events mid-century have triggered economic and social dislocation, altering political dynamics, and still climate and oceanic change, the result of our own malign choices in this present day, threaten the long-term future. At its heart, this is the story of a cautious young woman forced out of her comfortable assumptions and thrown into a world of astonishing marvels and quiet horrors. Through extraordinary encounters and hard-won insights, she grows in courage and purpose, determined to return and help change her own time.More broadly, the novel offers a grounded, scientifically informed future history of the twenty-first century-local in focus, global in implication. It acknowledges the crises we already see on the horizon, yet refuses both easy dystopia and idealised utopia. Above all, it insists that a better future remains possible.
