Clarice Cliff is widely regarded as Britain's premier designer of Art Deco ceramics. Her hand-painted Bizarre ware, with its brilliant colors and innovative shapes, is avidly collected worldwide. Though all her distinctive pottery is popular, it is her floral designs that have always been the most commercially successful, both during her lifetime and today. Here, acknowledged expert Leonard Griffin explores Cliff's lifelong passion for flowers and its impact on her work, showing how many of her designs - her Crocus, Latona florals, her 1934 My Garden - were inspired by that love.

The integration of the location of activities in space and the use of transport has been a theoretical planning issue for many years. The purpose of this book is to present the issue in light of a single and consistent theoretical framework, that of random utility theory and discrete choice models. The author reviews microeconomic theory related to the use of space, spatial interaction models, entropy maximizing models, and random utility theory. Spatial input-output models, the location of activities, the land market, and the transport system are discussed and the book ends with a description of a number of real case studies to show how the theory can be used in practice.
