Abstract

Professional and academic advancement regarding the special link we have with our spaces and its effects on our wellbeing has been a journey of advocacy and knowledge over past decades. The book 'Good Urbanism: Six steps to creating Prosperous places' by Nan Ellin not only sits in this cadre, but expands the debate by addressing head-on, the issue of people-place-prosperity.
