Problems such as urban heat and air pollution need to be included in planning and design. The book underlines that the materiality and social practices attached to room heating, compound greening, street alignment or climate policies together form the tissue for contemporary urban climates. It interweaves socio-cultural with meteorological data and pioneers the new concept of 'thermal governance' by linking architectural and technological as well as legal and economic dimensions of climate control in urban environments. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN 9783035624212.
