«La ciudad en crisis» is Elaine Morgan's essay on urbanism, published by Pomaire in paperback (332 pages, in Spanish).
The essay addresses the crisis of cities and the relationship between urban design and everyday life: the type of spaces built conditions how people live and think. Morgan warns that current urban planning decisions will determine the future of children and grandchildren, and calls for an immediate reaction to steer city growth toward more livable environments.
Originally published by Editorial Pomaire in Barcelona in 1979.
A book for readers interested in urbanism, urban planning, and the social impact of city design.
Elaine Morgan OBE, FRSL, was a Welsh writer for television and the author of several books on evolutionary anthropology. She advocated the aquatic ape hypothesis, which advocated as a corrective to what she saw as theories that purveyed gendered stereotypes and failed to account for women's role in human evolution adequately. The Descent of Woman, published in 1972, became an international bestseller, translated into ten languages. In 2016, she was named one of "the 50 greatest Welsh men and women of all time" in a press survey.
