This E-book and the embedded videos are really intended to provide an easy access toolkit to summarise the qualities and characteristics which lead to great urban places and how change is achieved in said places. To share the knowledge held by the few and to give it to the many. For knowledge is power and people should have the power to change the places they live for the better.
It is inevitable that some Built Environment professionals will state disagreement or critique CitiesSimply.com for slimming concepts down.
Well, our response is someone has to start somewhere. This is an attempt to create a free educational resource that doesn't put the reader to sleep, something for people outside the built environment sector or students starting out on a property or planning type of course.
Our challenge to anyone waving such criticism is: If you feel you can do it better then please do. Or if you would like to contribute please let us know.
