* I've been really busy with development recently with no time for much else, but 2 books have just arrived from Amazon US! The two books are "The Anthropology of Space and Place" by Low & Zuniga, and "The Social Logic of Space" by Hillier & Hanson. It took me more than a month of waiting esp. for the Hiller and Hanson title - and this is Amazon, the largest bookstore in the world.
* That the Hillier & Hanson book is a must-read for architecture buffs is a non-sequitur. Is that the reason why no-one could find it in stock? Not sure, but what I do know is that this book published back in 1984 finally put the question of interaction between architectural urban spaces and local human communities to the academic table scientifically.
* The other book published in 2003, is a case study collection that documents how human communities from different countries around the world relate to and construct their space. I believe these two books will act as a catalyst in our search for the next-generation Naviblog, the fusion of information and space.
