First published in 1999, this volume features contributors specialising in urban planning and examines the challenges of environmental planning in urban areas, focusing on policy, management, organisation and policy. A collection of ground-breaking and thought-provoking papers, they are written by some of the most distinguished, internationally known names in the field of urban sustainability. The authors go beyond debates about approach and policy options to look at what is taking place. The experience of urban environmental management is presented from several countries in Africa, Latin America, Europe and Asia. They examine over twenty case studies in contributing to existing knowledge of environmental management practice in urban areas, emphasising the issue in both Northern and Southern countries in relation to growing awareness in the North and rapid city growth in the South. While containing critical analyses, the emphasis is placed on achievements and promising developments of vital importance to local administrators, policy-makers, town planners, academics, environmentalists and students alike.

Industry Reviews

'With its many case studies and its emphasis on policy, politics and management, this is a most useful addition to the literature on urban environmental problems.' David Satterthwaite, International Institute for Environment and Development '...local government personnel concerned with the urban environment will find the book very useful.' Aslib Book Guide 'A well-edited book - with fine introductions to the sections and cross references that make sense - adds something to our knowledge of how environmental management is being approached and practiced in urban areas at this time.' Journal of Housing and the Built Environment 'What is very attractive about this book is the diversity of its contributors...the studies presented in this book are indicative of the advances and shortcomings of urban environmental management.' International Journal of Environment and Pollution
