The city is where most people now live their lives, and it significantly impacts the cultural, social, economic, and political life of the modern world. Towards a Philosophy of the City explores a wide range of approaches and perspectives in a way that is true to the city's complex and dynamic character. The volume begins with a comprehensive introduction that identifies the key themes and then moves through four parts, examining the concept of the city itself, its varying histories and experiences, the character of the landscapes that belong to the city, and finally the impact of new technologies for the future of city spaces. Each section takes up aspects of the thinking of the city as it develops in relation to particular problems, contexts, and sometimes as exemplified in particular cities. This volume provides an invaluable resource for students and scholars in Philosophy, Geography, Sociology, and Urban Studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 656g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 162 x 237 x 24 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781786604590                                                      \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44102311739642,"sku":"9781786604590","price":107.1,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/6c9aa8dff8312d6864c89156cdda0670.jpg?v=1624842494","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/philosophy-and-the-city-interdisciplinary-and-transcultural-perspectives","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
