‘Too often when a new and transformational movement emerges, we do not take time to contemplate and evaluate its achievements and shortcomings. This crucial and comprehensive volume on smart growth gives us a much-needed critical reflection on how the movement unfolded and how it continues to impact urbanization as new challenges arrive in the 21st century. A must-read for every urbanist, whether professional or armchair!’
