Description: Urbino: The History of a City and Plans for its Development Giancarlo De Carlo Published by The MIT Press, 1970. Larger cloth hardcover very good in dust jacket with edge tears else intact; loaded with illustrations; 244 pages. Urbino is a small town in central Italy, population 7,800, the seat of a university, and also the center of a rural administrative district with a population of 17,500. Its eventful and long history has over the past two decades come to include an especially remarkable modern feature: the town government has undertaken a program of self-rehabilitation, a program supported moreover not only by the administration and the dominant regional interests but also by the population at large. This is a case in which social decay seems to have become a true focus of concern, uniting every sort of person affected by what had become a steady decline in the general quality of life. This book is a translation of Giancarlo De Carlo's detailed study of Urbino's problems and its Master Plan for its own evolution.
