In nine episodes (nine is a sacred figure), it highlights the principal influences and social impacts on cities from ancient times to contemporary city developments. As such, it provides planners and architects with insights that can easily be applied in contemporary cities and towns and help foster Indias cultural heritagea much-needed, but little-discussed approach. Indian cities are the result of various factors, some imposed, others following local traditions that shaped them. They were founded around social needs, landscape conditions and production routines, as well as the religious influences of Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, Sikhism, Islam, Christianity and animism. However, Western town-planning models are often implemented, blurring the traditional way of life in cities. For sustainable town development, it is of key importance to find solutions that deal with Indian city models. 001461494 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001461494 650_0 $$aUrbanization$$zIndia$$xHistory. 001461494 650_0 $$aCity planning$$xSocial aspects$$zIndia$$xHistory. 001461494 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001461494 655_7 $$aHistory.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01411628 001461494 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aBORNBERG, RENATE.$$tURBAN INDIA.$$d[Place of publication not identified] : SPRINGER INTERNATIONAL PU, 2023$$z3031237366$$w(OCoLC)1353974289 001461494 830_0 $$aCities, heritage and transformation. 001461494 852__ $$bebk 001461494 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-23737-9$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001461494 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1461494$$pGLOBAL_SET 001461494 980__ $$aBIB 001461494 980__ $$aEBOOK 001461494 982__ $$aEbook 001461494 983__ $$aOnline 001461494 994__ $$a92$$bISE
