Reviews
“Urban Politics is an exceptionally well-researched handbook for progressive policy activists in the public and private sectors. Its value is in the depth of analysis, both positive and negative, into the factors affecting the future of urban America. The focus on power and its use historically provides a portal into the future for academics and all concerned about urban America. Its style and structure make Urban Politics an effective textbook for classroom use.” Minchin Lewis, Syracuse University, USA
