'As someone who is experienced in both academia and practice in China, I found this book insightful and accurate in its representation of the theory and practice of urban design in China. Chinese Urban Design is a fantastic introduction for those new to the country and subject along with those who are more familiar with this unique context.' Timothy Heath, University of Nottingham, UK 'Fei Chen and Kevin Thwaites have taken a fascinating angle on urban investigation and city design in China ...Undoubtedly, the authors have done an excellent job of introducing Chinese urban design theory and practice to urban theorists and researchers, designers, practitioners and perhaps most importantly, policy-makers. The book provides a new approach for achieving socially sustainable urban design in contemporary Chinese cities and towns ... the book should prove to be essential reading for Chinese urban design scholars'.
