The First World War claimed over 995,000 British lives, and its legacy continues to be remembered today.Great War Britain Leeds offers an intimate portrayal of the city and its people living in the shadow of the 'war to end all wars'. It describes the local reaction to the outbreak of war, the experience of individuals who enlisted, the changing face of industry and related unrest, the work of the many hospitals in the area, the effect of the conflict on children, the women who defied convention to play a vital role on the home front, and how the city and its people coped with the transition to life in peacetime once more. The Great War story of Leeds is told through the voices of those who were there and is vividly illustrated with images from the archives of Leeds Museums & Galleries

This edited collection of biographical and autobiographical essays chronicles the transformative journeys of Australian planners who, confronting unprecedented urban challenges in the late twentieth century, pioneered new concepts, methodologies, and approaches that fundamentally reshaped the trajectory of urban planning for the twenty-first century.The essays illuminate the profound social, economic, and technological upheavals of this era, as the established planning paradigm fractured into multiple specialized approaches—environmental planning, social planning, advocacy planning, collaborative planning, and others. These emerging frameworks, directly linked to rapid urbanization processes, reverberated through urban planning practice and governance structures. The result was a radical reimagining of the planning model itself, driven by critical reassessments of conventional practice, methodological innovations, grassroots demands for meaningful community participation, and heightened attention to previously marginalized concerns: the needs of women and children, Indigenous culture and rights, heritage conservation, environmental sustainability, and social equity.Reinventing Urban Planning in Australia will appeal to readers interested in the history of urban and social transformation, the evolution of planning theory and policy, Australian urbanism, planning history, and professional biography. It bridges key disciplines including history, geography, urban planning, and environmental studies, offering valuable insights for scholars, practitioners, and students alike.
