By focusing on the interplay between material, social and narrative dimensions of the city, this book examines urban complexity and advances the notion of the city as an urban texture. Taking an innovative, interdisciplinary approach, it argues that urban fabric is 'manufactured' in this interplay, examines less visible ways in which the city is organized and shows how these can reveal better ways of dealing with conflict and enhancing urban sociability
