Description: This book describes diverse urban planning projects in Turkey, Bahrain, United Arab Emirates - Dubai and Sharjah - Kuwait, Afghanistan, Albania, Syria and Yemen. One thing in common between these countries is that the author has personally worked on all these projects, and thus the book is a partial professional autobiography. Each chapter tackles not only a different country but also a different aspect of urban planning and development.
