Society and Environment: A Historical Review Hardback

Part of the Studies in International Planning History series

Hardback

Description

Jaqueline Tyrwhitt (1905-1983) was a British town planner, editor, and educator.

This book includes four of Tyrwhitt's key texts to illustrate how she forged and promoted a synthesis of Patrick Geddes' bioregionalism and the utopian ideals of European Modernist urbanism, which influenced post-war academic discourse and professional practice in urban planning and design internationally.

The key texts reprinted in this book are contributions from the Town and Country Planning Textbook (1950) which was published as an outcome for the Correspondence Course in Town Planning for members of the Allied Forces, which Tyrwhitt ran.

It was designed to meet the requirements created by passage of the 1947 Town and Country Act and helped to shape a generation of planning practitioners in the UK and commonwealth countries.
