Industry Reviews

This delightfully hands-on approach will be a breath of fresh air for students and practitioners alike. At long last we have a book that teaches urban planners to be intelligently analytical and ultrapractical. -- Ray Wyatt, University of Melbourne
Good books on planning methods are rare. Klosterman and his colleagues have done us a great service by updating Klosterman's previous book and extending its scope in population forecasting, spatial analysis, and GIS. A key text. -- Michael Batty, University College London
I predict-and making accurate predictions is a big part of what this new volume covers-that Planning Support Methods will become an essential 'go-to' reference for both beginning students and experienced professionals. New chapters and sections on spatial analysis methods, land suitability analysis methods, and public participation methods help round out this extremely well-written, easy-to-use, and important new work. -- John D. Landis, University of Pennsylvania
Klosterman and his colleagues have done a masterful job of assembling and describing the core methods that planners use to understand the dynamics of urban growth and development. No other text combines demographic, economic and land suitability techniques in such an effective manner. This book provides a clear explanation of fundamental planning support methods. -- Stephen P. French, Georgia Institute of Technology
