Synopsis

Transit Oriented Growth explores how integrating transportation infrastructure with urban design can create sustainable and equitable communities. It examines transit-oriented development (TOD) principles, emphasizing walkability, reduced congestion, and enhanced mobility. The book argues for a shift from auto-centric planning to prioritizing public transit, pedestrian, and bicycle infrastructure, addressing urban sprawl and social inequity. It also considers the architecture and political dimensions of policy implementation in the context of these urban transformations.

 
The book begins by tracing urban planning's evolution and introduces TOD principles like mixed-use development and density near transit hubs. Case studies illustrate successful and unsuccessful TOD implementations. For example, TOD can increase property values and reduce transportation costs.

 
It further delves into the social equity implications of TOD, focusing on affordable housing and inclusive community development. The framework presented guides policymakers and planners in implementing TOD strategies by navigating zoning regulations and community engagement. The book draws evidence from urban planning studies, transportation data, and economic assessments, offering a practical guide for creating sustainable cities through effective transit-oriented development.

    Our most brilliant, fearless and creative women directors open the door on their craft, discussing their work in the theatre in intimate and illuminating detail.
    Through a series of fascinating conversations with many of the leading talents working on British stages, Running the Room explores what it takes to succeed in the field, and how each director approaches the work in their own way.
    Each interview focuses on a particular facet of the director's practice, examining not just the 'how' – how to talk to actors, how to create the right rehearsal environment, how to handle cuts and previews, how to work with a living playwright – but also the 'why': why certain approaches work better than others, why there's no 'right' way to direct a play, and why work in theatre anyway?
    As this passionate, inspiring book shows, there are myriad ways to be a theatre director. For aspiring or current directors, it will give you the confidence to be uniquely yourself, develop your own approach, and create the work you want to make. For creatives in other disciplines, it will provide insight into directors' processes, along with examples of successful collaboration. And for anyone who loves theatre, this is an unparalleled first-hand account of how brilliant theatre is made – direct from those making it.
