{"product_id":"city-shock-winy-maas-9789462080072","title":"City Shock: Planning the Unexpected","description":"In a world of seemingly ever-increasing instability, many urban planning decisions seem to be governed not by vision, but by fear--fear of disaster, of change, of the unknown. What can we learn from this state of affairs? Can such fear be made beneficial? Is it conceivable that 'fear' might even offer a kind of \u003ci\u003eguide\u003c\/i\u003e in matters of urban planning? Guided by fantasy and invention rather than science, \u003ci\u003eCity Shock: Planning the Unexpected\u003c\/i\u003e proposes ten 'what if' scenarios, imagining how each of these scenarios could play out in the Dutch landscape between 2018 and 2047. In a narrative composed of feasible but unlikely headlines, a series of newspaper-style spreads report on fictitious future catastrophic events, exposing possible causes and consequences. \u003ci\u003eCity Shock\u003c\/i\u003e is the sixth book in Winy Maas' Why Factory's \u003ci\u003eFuture Cities\u003c\/i\u003e series.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Winy Maas\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9462080070\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789462080072\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Nai010 Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/30\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 318\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.70w x 0.90d","brand":"Winy Maas","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48442840613119,"sku":"9789462080072","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c29478a4-7297-49c2-80a1-68396251d0a0.jpg?v=1777200134","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/city-shock-winy-maas-9789462080072","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
