The New Towns Programme of 1946 to 1970 was one of the most substantial periods of urban development in Britain. The New Towns have often been described as a social experiment; so what has this experiment proved?This book covers the story of how these towns came to be built; how they aged; and the challenges and opportunities they now face as they begin phases of renewal. The new approaches in design throughout their past development reflect changes in society throughout the latter half of the twentieth century. These changes are now at the heart of the challenge of sustainable development.The New Towns provide lessons for social; economic and environmental sustainability. These lessons are of great relevance for the regeneration of twentieth century urbanism and the creation of new urban developments today.

Joe Diorio. and Steve Khan as well!The Intervallic Concept is one worth learning it will improve your playing and speaking on the guitar - the "modern" sound like the Twilight Zone sounding stuff very cool and very musical is Diorio-and he keeps the electric guitar in mind very well!!You need to listen to Diorio --He is a CLASS ACT!!!!!!Also it is not rocket science to get to some of these things even if you just incorporate it into your playing-- though you have to play it and practice it and speak with it -for all your music--and if you are a jazz player - you can do some very hip things using this book---He does give insights to some of his music hereThis book will open up the Intervallic Concept which is dynamite!Jimmyd0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. I loved this book when I still had itBy Astratto0219I loved this book when I still had it. I lost it at some point. I used the playing examples on electric bass. which led to some fun and insightful shifting choices. Gets you out of the comfort zone! Buy this book. and while youre at it. buy one for me as well!Pros: An excellent addition to your constantly evolving improvisational palleteCons: See above. I lost mine.Overall: I want another one but not buying it today.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. helpfulBy AnthonyI was never trained on arpeggios and theyre substitutions. This book has helped with that. The format is a little weird. as Im used to other authors. If youre looking for a book about arpeggios that isnt just a gig bag encyclopedia. this is it.
