2.0 out of 5 stars The future of sustainable Town Planning?, 24 Jul 2005
By A Customer
If I have a gripe about this book it is with the structure, which although very well signposted throughout, does not seem to share a clear logic like the earlier 'Sustainable Settlements' which was ordered by spatial scale (strategic to local). The new guide by comparison seems less logical, and sections overlap much more. Perhaps this merely reflects the fact that settlements are not logical, but are complex constructions that cannot easily be parcelled up for discussion. Either way if this is the future of sustainable Town Planning it appears that the subject is to become more vague and unfocused, with a less systematic and methodical approach, something planning desperately needs in this country. A disappointment!
