Description
Using examples from all over the world, Klaus Humpert presents trails optimized by types of human movement, which can be read in visible traces through cities and countrysides. These trails give information on the unconscious psychological rules for human movement in contrast to rational city planning. Thus, the author's thesis is also a plea for a strongly human-oriented landscape and city planning.
