Authored by academics and practitioners this exciting new book takes a problem based approach to regeneration management. The challenges facing those involved with regeneration are many and varied, this book provides the tools and techniques, using a mixture of rigorous academic theory and practical insights, to enable any reader to gain insights into this important subject. The editors provide a framework within which the practical difficulties facing those engaged in the process of regeneration face. Drawing upon a breadth of experience both in practice and in academia the contributors present the gaps and challenges within regeneration management. Written in an engaging style this comprehensive book examines how issues of ethics, equality, sustainability, local governance, civic renewal and learning are addressed, within the areas of social and economic development and transformation. All of these have real and significant implications for the ways in which regeneration initiatives are put together (in their design, development and delivery), the skills and learning needs of practitioners and the ways in which initiatives are then managed and led. This is a must read for all those with an interest in regeneration.
