'Hopefully, this book will inspire architects and city planners to work with industrial designers in building better toilets that benefit the public and increase civic pride. But Inclusive Urban Design: Public Toilets is a great read for anyone interested in architecture, urban planning and livability.' Powells.com Staff Pick 'What do you mean, you don't want to read about public toilets? If you are under the impression that this is a boring book devoted to the arse-end of urban design then you're sorely mistaken. Chapter Six: Medical Perspectives - incompetence or incontinence? is a must read... On a serious note, it's brilliantly written - lots of sartorial humour in here surprisingly - and very informative.' FX Magazine 'This is an interesting title on a subject which we suffer mostly in our daily urban life. The book provides a deep understanding of toilet issues and gives many useful suggestions and guidance to urban designers, architects, municipality technicians.' Open House International 'A well argued case for the recognition and provision of public toilets as a planning and urban design necessity.' Women & Environments International Magazine
