This book showcases cutting-edge research on city form revealing that urban design features such as topology, morphology, entropy and scale have massive implications to the quality of life for a city's residents.

The Aretian team, a spin off company from the Harvard Innovation Lab, has developed a city science methodology to evaluate the relationship between city form and urban performance. By measuring innovation economies to design Innovation Districts, social networks, city topology, morphology, entropy and scale to create 15 Minute Cities are some of the frameworks presented in this volume.

Therefore, urban designers, architects and engineers will be able to successfully tackle complex urban design challenges by using the authors' frameworks and findings in their own work. This book give readers a new set of tools to learn from, expand, and develop for the healthy growth of cities and regions around the world.
