Through a capillary documentation of the palimpsest of Aleppo--of the peculiar characteristics of its courtyard houses and the neighborhoods of al-Bayyada, Bab Quinnesrin, and al-Farafira-- The Cultural Meaning of Aleppo is a theoretical and practical handbook for architects, urban planners, and restorers alike.
