description: Based on a new way of describing and analyzing the kinds of spatial patterns produced by buildings and towns this study presents a new theory of space: how and why it is a vital component of how societies work. The authors examine what it is about different types of societies that leads them to adopt different spatial forms and from this general theory they outline a pathology of modern urbanism in today's social context.
