Reviews
'...Gert de Roo clearly outlines in his most interesting book, environmental planning is much more than just formulating intentions and targets. He shows very clearly by means of many examples that planning methods will fail if they don't take the complexity of local decision-making into account...' Professor Henk Voogd, University of Groningen, Netherlands 'Professor de Roo's new book makes two principal contributions to our knowledge. First, he provides an informed description and a balanced, critical assessment of some important Dutch environmental planning initiatives that can provide ideas for practice elsewhere. Second, he develops and applies a framework for planning in complex situations that is an original contribution to planning theory.' Professor Donald Miller, University of Washington, USA 'The book...is to be welcomed in making Gert de Roo's work more generally accessible...a convincing account of the evolution of a more socially integrated approach to environmental protection that will have considerable resonance and drive in many different contexts.' Journal of Environmental Planning and Management
