Description
by Walter Menzies (Author)
A GUIDE FOR THE PERPLEXED - the first part of the book - is an illustrated rant against the mediocre places that typify the first quarter of the twentieth century - a typology of the tat that is the product of motorhead, consumerist, corporate, neoliberal, business as usual place making. Its highest achievement has been the roundabout. HARBINGERS - Part 2 - explores 20 special places in England's Northwest - distinctive, positive, hopeful, lively, undervalued, sometimes endangered, often below the radar, that signal the potential of a more sustainable future...places in transition, places reinventing themselves...changing places.
