Reviews

Riesto's work on Carlsberg demonstrates a new way of approaching urban heritage: by evaluating the nuances and contestations within delineations of heritage through shifting the perspective. This is an uncommon way of approaching urban heritage and can serve as a model for future work in this field (...) (and) makes a significant contribution to our understanding of heritage from a landscape biography lens. - V. Camille Westmont, The University of the South, Sewanee, USA in JEL, Journal of European Landscapes[-][-] It is enjoyable to follow the carefully written and winding narrative, here and there, safely knowing that the author knows how it all comes together. This is a well-written and important book. The main message (...) is crucial for how the next chapters in the biographies about our changing industrial landscapes will develop. - Anna Storm, Stockholm University, Nordic Journal of Settlement and Built Heritage[-][-] The book forms a welcome contribution to scholarship that addresses transformations of the built environment, evaluating design and planning projects and their reception in relation to the current discussion on heritage values. - Klaske Havik and Willemijn Wilms Floet, Delft University of Technology, Kunsthistorisk Bogliste
