The author emphasizes that in order to avoid the many issues that can arise from the problems of an unplanned city, such as issues of poor sanitation, traffic, and the spreading out of the city over large areas, that cities need to adopt comprehensive plans that address all aspects of a city's physical development. This includes plans for streets, parks, transit, public buildings, railroads, waterways, terminals, and markets, as well as plans for regulating the height, area, and use of buildings for different parts of the city. The author suggests that a city planning authority be created to work with a city's administration to continuously develop and implement these plans, and to ensure that all parts of the city's government are working in conjunction to improve the city.

Condizione: Near Fine. First edition in publisher's original illustrated stiff card wrap covers [soft back]. 8vo. 8½'' x 5¼''. 'To Richter (no first name necessary), warm greetings to the best pianist in the Soviet Union - indeed in the whole world.' Prokofiev. Throughout a life dedicated to music, Richter maintained a stubborn silence about his own ideals and aspirations. Here at last he opens up his heart in these exceptional interviews with Bruno Monsaingeon, who became close to Richter not long before the pianist's death in 1995. These conversations take us on a journey which begins with Richter's childhood memories, follows his early career and his development into 'an artist of the people', and finally charts his rise to international acclaim. Richter's personal notebooks, kept for nearly thirty years, constitute an unparalleled witness to the music of our time. The pianist writes with precision, humour and clarity and is uninhibitedly himself. These are the private thoughts of a nonconformist, one of the greatest performers of the century, yet one whose life was inextricably bound to the history of the USSR.
