Recapping the academic seminar “Discussing the Doing of Urban History” conducted by Prof. Ian MORLEY on 30 September 2016

After providing a detailed introduction to the main research approaches in this field, he used his own research on the history of urban planning in Manila to show how to explore the morphological evolution of urban places with various historical maps.
