This international and illustrated work challenges current writings focussing on the problems of urban public space to present a more nuanced and dialectical conception of urban life. Detailed and extensive international urban case studies show how urban open spaces are used for play, which is defined and discussed using Caillois' four-part definition - competition, chance, simulation and vertigo. Stevens explores and analyses these case studies according to locations where play has been observed: paths, intersections, thresholds, boundaries and props. Applicable to a wide-range of countries and city forms, "The Ludic City" is a fascinating and stimulating read for all who are involved or interested in the design of urban spaces.

很不錯的研究
評分很不錯的研究
評分感覺被這個書名和美麗的封麵坑瞭,上來就是列斐伏爾本雅明情境主義,後麵卻很揚蓋爾地描述瞭各種被定義為play的行為。說到底,本書還是沒有很好解釋play到底是什麼,雖然前麵說'play stands principally in contradiction to people's assumptions about the everyday functionality of the urban built environment',但是後麵對應的案例並沒那麼令人信服,比如說個人並不理解為什麼廣場上有人跳舞賣藝就算是everyday之外的活動,結論一句話urban design should be loose。當然考慮到本書在金融危機前有這樣的遠見還是很厲害,隻是後麵類似的太多也更成體係一些
