Excerpt from Town Theory and Practice
Within two years the municipalities of all towns in Great Britain with populations of twenty thousand and over will be required by law to prepare "town-plans." Hitherto, as is well known, there has been a minimum or entire absence of planning, and the result is the unpleasing, inconvenient, and unhealthy agglomerations of buildings which we call towns and cities to-day. In the future that state of things is not to be repeated, and municipal authorities, which have had the power for a dozen years to plan their towns without availing themselves of it to any extent, are to be compelled to make plans.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book outlines the key principles of the garden city concept, a vision for self-contained urban areas that combine industry and agriculture, and are designed to promote a healthier, more balanced way of life. The author argues that traditional cities, with their large populations, pollution, and often poor housing, do not provide the best environment for human well-being or economic prosperity. As an alternative, they propose a model that integrates urban and rural living, offering the benefits of both worlds while avoiding the drawbacks of each. The book discusses the importance of careful planning to ensure that gardens, homes, factories, and public spaces all work together harmoniously. It also emphasizes the role of community ownership and involvement in creating a sustainable and equitable environment. Ultimately, this book presents a compelling vision for a future where cities are designed to enhance human life and well-being, offering a thought-provoking contribution to the ongoing debate about urban planning. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
