One of the first postmodernist tracts has been reissued. Don’t all yawn at
once: this is Jane Jacobs’s immensely readable The Death and Life of Great
American Cities. First published in 1961, Jacobs blew the whistle on modernist
town planning. A gripping text on why cities should be fit for living in.
