Public spaces mirror the complexities of urban societies: as historic social bonds have weakened and cities have become collections of individuals public open spaces have also changed from being embedded in the social fabric of the city to being a part of more impersonal and fragmented urban environments. Can making public spaces help overcome this fragmentation, where accessible spaces are created through inclusive processes? This book offers some answers to this question through analysing the process of urban design and development in international case studies, in which the changing character, level of accessibility, and the tensions of making public spaces are explored.

The book uses a coherent theoretical outlook to investigate a series of case studies, crossing the cultural divides to examine the similarities and differences of public space in different urban contexts, and its critical analysis of the process of development, management and use of public space, with all its tensions and conflicts. While each case study investigates the specificities of a particular city, the book outlines some general themes in global urban processes. It shows how public spaces are a key theme in urban design and development everywhere, how they are appreciated and used by the people of these cities, but also being contested by and under pressure from different stakeholders.

Loved it
Bought this for my 3 year old son and if it’s perfectly on his toddler, bed would definitely recommend. I love the fluffy and cooling effect. It gives is very soft. It feels amazing. Especially for a toddler very comfy.

Great pillow & Machine Washable
A little on the firm side at first, but it's getting softer with a little use.

Fluff this in the dryer and this is the perfect pillow!
I bought throw pillows from this same brand and was disappointed until I read a tip in the reviews to place them in the dryer on fluff for about 20 minutes. That did the trick and one saved me after a rotator cuff injury. I used it for months to prop my arm up and prevent pain in my shoulder. I loved it so much I decided to see if this brand made a pillow for sleeping and was excited to find they did! This one took two rounds in the dryer on fluff, but I couldn't believe how soft and fluffy it got. I have been getting the best sleep ever since. If you get this pillow, I highly suggest throwing it in the dryer. It makes a huge difference!

Comfortable
This is the fluffiest pillow I have ever bought. I bought it for my 5 year old. He is extremely happy with it and makes him feel like he finally has a big boy pillow that supports him when he sleeps. I might buy one for myself. Defiantly a good purchase.

Fabulous
This is a fabulous pillow. I love it. I recommended wholeheartedly. It is however, large larger than I was expecting. Fortunately, I had a large pillowcase that fits it.
