5.0 out of 5 stars All-rounded Urban Design Excerpts, 23 Sep 2007
By M. Chang - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is definitely one of those books every built environment professional should have stashed in his/her bookshelf. This book is a collection of articles on the built environment from actual books ranging from general urban design views to specific design and planning approaches.

It is a good reference regardless of which specific profession you are in within the discipline. I have used many article many tims which give you a good concise overview rather than having to go to the actual publication and read the entire book.
