Their breakthrough planning concepts propose a vision of the future that combines the best of the past with the realities and modern conveniences of today.

"If you are trying to learn any of the thoughts and principals about New Urbanism, I would say look elsewhere. I would equate this to a grandma's brag book, light on facts and details and heavy on pictures and stories."
"This is such a thorough book about our built environment (think houses, stores, streets, etc.) and how we can change development patterns in positive ways. It's a classic in the planning field, but I think it's worth a wider audience."
