Reviews

Analytical and detailed in its approach and consistently daring in challenging accepted views of the causes of and solutions for urban sprawl. -- Donner Prize Jury


This highly practical book will give urban policy makers a better understanding of the implications of a number of tools available to them. It is a welcome addition to the debate over the use of regulatory policy as opposed to tax/subsidy measures to address land use issues and outcomes. <br> - David Amborski, Professor, School of Urban and Regional Planning, Ryerson University
