Omschrijving

East Asia today is a hotbed of urban expansion. This comparative study of urban expansion in the region, examines the processes by which new city building has taken place in recent years. It also refutes many of the common misconceptions about life in modern East Asia, and provides a critical assessment of the cities of the region.

... an interesting, well-informed, critical and comparative overview of contemporary modernisation in East Asian cities ... A strength of the book is the examination of architectural style and building form. A real sense of cityscape is provided via the accounts of pencil buildings in Hong Kong and the verticality of living ... This book should be a valuable library reference source ... The book's content is up-to-date and detailed ... the numerous black and white photographic illustrations are excellent Geography

Peter G. Rowe is Professor and former Dean of the Graduate School of Design, Harvard University. He is the author of a number of books including Architectural Encounters with Essence and Form in Modern China (2002, with Seng Kuan) and Modernity and Housing (1993).
