Description

Here for the first time is a thoroughly interdisciplinary and international examination of Jane Jacobss legacy. Together, the editors and contributors highlight the notion that Jacobss influence goes beyond planning to philosophy, economics, sociology and design. They set out to answer such questions as: What explains Jacobss lasting appeal and is it justified? Where was she right and where was she wrong? What were the most important themes she addressed? And, although Jacobs was best known for her work on cities, is it correct to say that she was a much broader thinker, a philosopher, and that the key to her lasting legacy is precisely her exceptional breadth of thought?
