This comprehensive monograph presents cutting-edge research methods for analyzing urban green space equity across multiple scales. The book approaches the subject by examining individual-level dimensions such as mobility patterns and gender differences, city-level perspectives including neighborhood effects and service optimization, and national-level comparisons of resource endowments, planning institutions and equity practices. Written for urban planners, environmental policy researchers, and academics, this work provides both theoretical frameworks and practical tools for measuring and improving green space justice in urban environments. It uniquely combines methodological rigor with policy applications, offering a multi-dimensional understanding of how equitable access to urban green spaces can be assessed and enhanced.
