Books like Ciudades para la gente by Jan Gehl

Name: Ciudades para la gente
Author: Jan Gehl

El precepto más importante de *Ciudades para la gente* es que sin gente, no hay ciudades. Esta idea podrá parecer obvia para el urbanita cotidiano, pero es algo que se ha perdido de manera sistemática en el hacer urbano profesional. La escala humana está conspicuamente ausente en los planes maestros de los planeadores urbanos, en los detalles ingenieriles civiles, en las fotografías y renders de propuestas de proyectos. Jan Gehl toma esta situación deplorable de la práctica urbana a sus máximas expresiones, argumentando que el grado de éxito de una ciudad está directamente relacionada con la calidad de vida que estos ambientes promueven.
