Borrowing from Isaiah Berlin's foxes vs hedgehogs and Gregory Treverton's puzzle vs mystery solving analogies, this book encourages urban designers to be multitaskers like foxes, rather than hedgehogs who can do one thing right. Thinking this way allows them to better engage with and unravel the mysterious nature of informal urban design.
