To start with the author background. Hamid Shirvani is recently a professor and chancellor in Pennsylvania State University. He spent his entire career in the education field and teaching in various locations in USA till he reached the highest level he holds now. Shirvani has served on numerous public and private boards and Commissions, these boards functions are mainly educational function and related to developing the higher education research and systems in the place of his work. He worked in professional development committees and sites. As it is clear from his work CV that he spent most of his career in the theoretical field but not in the professional work environment, it’s obvious also that there is no indication of direct participation in laboratory work in any of the fields of his specialty rather than the university and education environment. This provides the reader of full perspective of the author’s educational background and his relevant work experience as mostly it’s to developing the theory, and making it efficient in application in the real world urban design professional life.
