From the review:
"In summary, the work is overall unified by its contributions’ association with UrbNet as well as their argument for the use of multiple research methods to obtain a more complete understanding of and answers to archaeological questions. In the sections on Palmyra and Jerash, this argument is generally well met; however, the section on ‘Rome and its Cities’ is more indicative of expectations than results. Finally, despite their brevity, most of the chapters do effectively communicate the premise of the book: namely, that taking a multi-disciplinary “high-definition” approach can yield broader insights about urban environments and their networks."
