Features: This book focuses on the two major elements of the human body and the city, examines the evolution of human civilization, establishes a framework for reconstructing the history of human civilization; and attempts to explain how culture has played an important role in creating and utilizing urban space, but the current urban concept is causing cultural loss and the numbness of people's souls. Only by returning to the body and returning to the senses can humans restore what has been marginalized by modern urban civilization.
