People in Cities : The Urban Environment and its Effects Hardback
by Edward Krupat
Part of the Environment and Behavior series
Hardback
Description
People in Cities is about the experience of urban life.
Edward Krupat analyzes current research and theory about the ways in which cities affect people.
He contrasts urban living with life in smaller communities, and compares popular notions and stereotypes about city dwellers with the results of empirical research.
Taking a social psychological perspective, he integrates ideas from psychology, sociology, urban planning, and architecture.
Non-technical and readable, the book offers a sophisticated examination of models of urban life and explores the issues of stress and crowding, urban social relationships, images of the city, and the impact of good and poor design.
