Architectronics : revolutionary technologies for masterful building through design

Deskripsi

In Architectronics, Michael Winn attacks issues that lie at the heart of social progress and issues which affect every man, woman, and child in the urban community. And he poses an important question: What do we need to know to effectively manage development so that we produce communities that are free from such conditions as crime and juvenile delinquency, conditions which we seem to have resigned ourselves to living with, as if they were unresolvable? Winn embarks on a formidable task as he seeks in contemporary society the source of dramatically worsening statistics on drug abuse, alcoholism, juvenile crime, and terrorism. In this inquiry, he traces an interesting trail which relates our use of technologies to the growing sense of isolation experienced by residents in all urban areas.
