Know about the book -

Parisian Views is written by Shelley Rice and published by MIT Press. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0262681072 (ISBN 10) and 9780262681070 (ISBN 13).

Each of the book's essays is in itself a "Parisian view." The fragmented, layered quality of the text allows the author to avoid making a linear narrative out of a subject that is enriched by multiple perspectives. Yet all of the essays revolve around a central theme: the creation of modern urban space, in both two and three dimensions, and the impact of this space on the lives of those who walked the streets of Paris of the nineteenth century.
