“Urban Regeneration and Community Empowerment Through ICTs, De Filippi and Cocina provide both a comprehensive international state-of-the-art and an empirical case … Delivering this in under 140 pages is an achievement that will be useful to researchers, students, and practitioners alike. … The book format enables De Filippi and Cocina to position the compelling experience of MiraMap within global good practice and therefore constitutes a useful companion for those in search of applied theory and detailed, inspirational case studies.” (Ian Babelon, Journal of Urban Affairs, June 27, 2023)
