{"product_id":"riverine-gerald-adler-9781138681781","title":"Riverine: Architecture and Rivers","description":"\u003cp\u003eRiverscapes are the main arteries of the world's largest cities, and have, for millennia, been the lifeblood of the urban communities that have developed around them. These human settlements - given life through the space of the local waterscape - soon developed into ritualised spaces that sought to harness the dynamism of the watercourse and create the local architectural landscape. Theorised via a sophisticated understanding of history, space, culture, and ecology, this collection of wonderful and deliberately wide-ranging case studies, from Early Modern Italy to the contemporary Bengal Delta, investigates the culture of human interaction with rivers and the nature of urban topography. \u003ci\u003eRiverine\u003c\/i\u003e explores the ways in which architecture and urban planning have imbued cultural landscapes with ritual and structural meaning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gerald Adler\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1138681784\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781138681781\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/13\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 236\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Gerald Adler","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48113283629311,"sku":"9781138681781","price":58.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_44fae23c-0ca2-4808-8993-9246834a15b9.jpg?v=1769614077","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/riverine-gerald-adler-9781138681781","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
