Reviews
"With persuasive arguments and highly inventive juxtapositions of sources, Rowan compellingly urges us to consider how Americans have understood and contested the meanings of human interactions in the city. The Sociable City surveys the urban ideas emerging from a strikingly wide-ranging variety of genres, while offering close readings that glisten with creative and surprising insights."--Benjamin Looker, author of A Nation of Neighborhoods, The Sociable City is an excellent and sophisticated contribution to the cultural and intellectual history of urbanism. It brings a novel and enriched vocabulary to the history of urban thought through reconsideration of classic writers and the introduction of new ones as well., The Sociable City is an act of recovery, a taut intellectual history dense with insights on the surfaces and depths of urban life., "Jamin Creed Rowan has provided a much needed book for all of us working to understand the complexity of cities. His clear, nuanced discussion of the ecology of cities advances our collective efforts to build and rebuild relationships with our neighborhoods and each other. The Sociable City boldly reminds us how to hold fast to the intricate web of diversity that comprise the places we call home."--Stephen Goldsmith, Center for the Living City, " The Sociable City is an excellent and sophisticated contribution to the cultural and intellectual history of urbanism.
