Introduction -- Spatial Planning and Urban Space Research -- Connotation and Methods of Space Development Research -- Development Theory and the Scientific Outlook on Urban Development -- The Deep Structure of Urban Space Development- Basic Laws of Urban Space Development -- Morphological Features of Urban Space Development -- Urban Planning Intervention and Spatial Strategy Model -- Modern Urban Design and Human Place Shaping -- China's National Space Master Plan.

This book is a systematic monograph on urban space development theory, exploring the laws of urban space development and the basic principles of planning and design. It clarifies the connotation and methods of urban space development research, highlights the deep structure and four laws of urban space development, expounds the obvious characteristics of urban and regional forms, and discusses the interventional role of urban planning and the development mode of Chinese urban space. It also discusses the methodological change of modern urban design, and forms the principles and core content of China's national spatial planning. Guided by the fundamental principles and methods of development theory, this book follows logical progression from concept to method, from deep structure to manifest form, from macro to micro and from law to planning. By providing readers with a comprehensive and systematic urban space development research system, this book is a valuable read for both researchers and graduate students in urban studies and architectural design. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence. A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content.
