The City: An Urban Cosmology

By Joseph Grange

The City: An Urban Cosmology Philosophy

The City: An Urban Cosmology

0 - Default Title
Description
Continuing the argument Grange's highly acclaimed Nature, this book develops a theory of good urban growth and development that involves both the physical and the cultural dimensions of city life. The City offers a "Cityscape" that illuminates the central importance of place in urban experience, and it also constructs a radically new "Urban Semiotics' that opens up novel ways to measure the effects media have on human experience. In applying the thought of Peirce, Mead, Dewey, and Whitehead to contemporary City, Grange reasserts American philosophy's classical purpose -- to make a real difference in the concrete lives human beings.
