After spreading out for a long period the urban areas into the lands, control and optimization of built densities appear as a rational way to meet the challenges of sustainable development, the concern for ecological balance, and the emergency of a rational and reasonable consumption of space.

Thanks to this book, the Planning Agency of the city of Marseilles (agAM) contributes to the debate on density, which runs more than ever the planning and construction profession, with three goals:
- To break few myths by confronting abstraction of density indications to the ‘qualities' of urban forms in their diversity.
- To understand this issue in its whole complexity while increasing the number of criteria, and by crossing concepts of ‘measurable density' and ‘perceived density'.
- To confront these analyses and the operational ways they may lead to, to the existing regulations and planning procedures (SRU law...). 

Beyond the valuable information it provides on the history and the news of Marseilles' urban fabric, this book published by Imbernon Publishers aims at being a tool for all professionals in the construction of cities.
