In 1999, Jeff Kenworthy & colleagues (Laube & Zeibots) published a paper entitled “Towards a Science of Cities“. Jeff recently drew my attention to this and I post it here as it is key to many indicators of city structure and function as developed in their groundbreaking book Cities and Automobile Dependence: An International Sourcebook.
