Numerous organizations rank the most livable cities globally or within nations, employing various indicators to assess factors contributing to a place's health. While understanding the factors that make a place livable is becoming increasingly feasible due to the exploration of liveability and health concepts in urban studies and the influence of other disciplines, designing a truly healthy and livable environment remains challenging.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book aims to address this challenge by defining the field of investigation into sustainable regeneration through topics such as resilience, adaptation, health, and mixed connections. It then showcases current approaches to analyzing and designing healthy places, with a particular focus on the innovative Healthy Pl@ce Design method. This method is designed to be flexible and repeatable in different contexts, with the primary objective of identifying sustainable urban liveability and healthiness from the perspectives of users. By identifying design interventions that can enhance or create both urban liveability and health, the method seeks to contribute to the development of more sustainable and livable cities.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe empirical part of the book is enriched with detailed case studies conducted in Europe, Canada, and China. These case studies include Bordeaux, Copenhagen, Hamburg, Madrid, Newcastle-Gateshead, Nice, Dublin, Vancouver, and Wuhan. These cities are chosen as emblematic examples due to their diverse experiences and approaches to urban development. Surveys, questionnaires, images, and maps are used to provide a comprehensive understanding of the factors that contribute to urban liveability and healthiness in each case study.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe theoretical framework of the book is built upon contemporary issues and international case studies, making it both attractive and scientific. This framework provides a solid foundation for understanding the complexities of urban health and liveability, and it appeals to a wide readership, including scholars, students, administrators, and policymakers. By presenting a comprehensive and interdisciplinary approach to urban planning, this book contributes to the ongoing efforts to create more sustainable and livable cities for the future.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 660g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780367566425\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Marichela Sepe","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44104070693114,"sku":"9780367566425","price":133.28,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1665772325546_book.jpg?v=1665933118","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/designing-healthy-and-liveable-cities-creating-sustainable-urban-regeneration-9780367566425","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
