Books by Eric Mumford

A comprehensive new survey tracing the global history of urbanism and urban design from the industrial revolution to the present

Examines the emergence and evolution of the discipline of urban design as articulated through the work of Josep Lluis Sert (1902-1983). With a selection of archival materials, illustrations, plans, and maps, this book looks at the man who advocated the idea of 'urban consciousness' and an architecture that dealt with the total environment.
