Fran Tonkiss, Academic Director of the Cities Programme, publishes new book ‘Cities by Design: The Social Life of Urban Form’ (Polity, December 2013). Examining who makes our cities, and what part do everyday users have in the design of cities, Tonkiss shows that city-making is a social process and examines the close relationship between the social and physical shaping of urban environments.
