"Gary Bridge and Sophie Watson's Companion to the City is a wonderful compendium of some of the best writing on cities and urbanism. It covers a wide range of approaches encompassing the city in literature, planning, representations of the city, policy and analysis. It truly is a 'companion' and like all good companions has always something relevant to say whatever the reader's mood or whatever s/he is searching for." Professor Elizabeth Wilson, previously of University of North London
"This is a first-class read, useful for architects and planners as well as for students of the city. A state-of-the-art book." Richard Sennett, London School of Economics and Political Science
"This is a substantial, well illustrated volume in five parts [...] The editors have certainly succeeded in their aim to 'create a multidiscplinary approach to cities' in compiling their 'companion'." Stephen Royle, Queen's University Belfast
