Reviews

This is a fine contribution to the planning field and will be especially helpful to those interested in the stories told around planning strategies and projects. It draws together and enriches the literature on narrative and storytelling, both generally and specifically in relation to planning and urban studies. It contains two well-developed case studies of major redevelopment projects in one of Northern Europe's major cities which illustrate the different ways narratives inform, get used in and are generated by planning activity. Many will find this book a really helpful resource. - Patsy Healey, professor Emeritus, School of Architecture, Planning and Landscape, Newcastle University, UK
