A major new introduction to planning by one of the leading figures in the field. This text goes beyond description of planning''s central ideas and practices to stress the importance of its potential to improve the quality of life in the 21st century.
Industry Reviews

Wise, insightful and thoroughly grounded in the complex realities of planning practice, Making Better Places will be read with pleasure by practicing planners everywhere. It will also be ideal for the classroom and I recommend it very highly - and intend to use it myself - for both undergraduate and graduate courses. Karen Christensen, Associate Professor and Chair of the Department of City and Regional Planning, University of California, Berkeley, USA

This major new text by one of the world's most influential planning scholars provides a rich set of examples of how planning has made places better and a striking argument for the relevance of the progressive, egalitarian aims of what she calls the planning project. Susan Fainstein, Harvard University
