Professor Emeritus Julian Beinart, an internationally celebrated architect and longtime MIT professor known for his highly influential course on urbanism, died on Oct. 2 due to complications from Parkinson’s disease. He was 88. An admirable person.
I listened to his lectures 9 years ago and I still remember them. He has created the supreme synthesis of disciplines in city planning into a palatable lecture series. This class might change your life.
I took the time and watched the entire series. And it took me a while. It provided me with numerous valuable references and resources for my own personal research into the subject of formation of cities. I thought his selection of topics , events, time-periods and cities was great. However, at times, I had a very difficult time sitting through his lectures and listening to the comments that were questionable.
@@mitocw My sincere apologies, I got the spelling wrong, it's Çatalhöyük with the diacritics and all, also, to the person(s) editing the captions with such pure speed based on one of thousands of comments on this channel, thank you so very very much for helping make web content accessible
