Minor external handling wear. Issued without a dust jacket. -- This work provides a comprehensive exploration of the mathematical and quantitative methods used to analyze and model the physical form of cities. It bridges the gap between urban planning and design and the fields of mathematics, physics, and complexity science. The book systematically covers a wide range of analytical tools, including fractal geometry, cellular automata, agent-based modeling, and network theory (space syntax). It demonstrates how these quantitative approaches can be used to understand the emergent properties of urban systems, such as their growth patterns, spatial configuration, and overall structure. The volume serves as a foundational text for researchers and students seeking to apply rigorous mathematical models to the study of urban morphology.
