"From the industrial revolution in the nineteenth century to the rise of the obesity epidemic after 1980, a long series of reformers and advocates have sought to protect and promote health by manipulating how we build housing and neighborhoods. This book is a history of using urban planning and architecture to better public health in the United Sates. It highlights the work of tenement reformers, zoning advocates, modernist architects, new urbanists, and members of the new built environment and health movement, among others, to improve the health and social conditions of their time by modifying the environment around them"--Provided by publisher.
