This compact book (7" x 7", 196 pages, fully illustrated in color) is the
first full-length publication to present architect Paolo Soleri's Lean
Linear City concept, a city designed to optimize logistics, in part by being
fully integrated with its vital transportation corridor. Soleri, who is
known for his theory of "arcology" (architecture + ecology), proposes this
"arterial" arcology on analogy with how arteries support the essential
life-functions in an organism. The arterial Lean Linear City features
pedestrian-based communities oriented around linear local and regional
transportation systems, fostering quality of life through urban mobility and
access, while minimizing consumption of land and resources, including energy
resources.
