{"product_id":"the-urban-complex-by-robert-c-weaver","title":"The Urban Complex by Robert C. Weaver","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe modern city is sometimes referred to as an \"urban complex\" because the term symbolizes the nature and multiplicity of problems and activities involving the conduct of life in modern urban societies. THE URBAN COMPLEX explores the development of our cities, analyzes the problems of urban renewal, transportation, housing and ghetto life, and explains what the federal, state, and local governments can and should do to make our cities more attractive and comfortable for the people who use them. \"A social scientist reading the book will appreciate the objective presentation; an economist, the realistic discussion of the difference between effective market demand and sociological need and aspirations of housing. The political scientist will see the political implications, national and international, of urbanization and the changes in the central cities and suburbs of the land. The planner and practitioner in the fields of urban renewal and public housing, busy with day-to-day operations, will find long-range problems discussed. The layman and citizen can benefit from Dr. Weaver's account of considerations that have gone into shaping the urban renewal program as we know it today. He will also be made more aware—even though he may still be unwilling to accept it—that some of the notions we have had about urban and suburban living are myths.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eUsed book \/ good condition \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secret Teachings","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49078820143289,"sku":null,"price":8.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0775\/4026\/2073\/files\/Untitled_design-181.png?v=1788579784","url":"https:\/\/secretteachings.co\/products\/the-urban-complex-by-robert-c-weaver","provider":"Secret Teachings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
