Roman Urban Street Networks: Streets and the Organization of Space in Four Cities - Routledge Studies in Archaeology
Kaiser, Alan (University of Evansville, USA)

Using textual evidence as well as the physical evidence from Pompeii, Ostia, Silchester, and Empúries, Alan Kaiser argues that ideals about the arrangement of space united the phenomenon of Roman urbanism.
