BOOK REVIEW: The dimensions of urban decline

23 January 2004

DIARY: Crowded cemeteries, the case of the cranberry and a capital craze

23 January 2004

This high density lark seems to be catching on. As money pours in to stack more blocks of flats onto brownfield sites across the South-East, so the region's population increases. And, as a result, so do the number of those urban sophisticates kicking the bucket.
