This is first book to treat the city as if it were a person acknowledging that a city’s good and bad history has psychological effects. Our investigation centred on the built environment, using techniques from different branches of psychology, based on our book Psychology and the City: the hidden dimension (see free download). It explored deeper urban dynamics and challenged the more traditional economic idea that a place that could provide jobs and income alone, was one where people would inevitably feel contented or even happy. This approach can enrich our understanding of what makes successful places.
