Rezension zu „The Future of Cities and Regions “
From the reviews:"This book is aimed at managers and planners involved in the implementation of suitable planning policies and it includes strategies that have been tested and used around the global. ... this book is an excellent presentation of urban planning and how integrated approaches are being considered and implemented around the global today. ... Widespread inclusion of maps (many in color), supports the presentation in this book very effectively." (Jeff Thurston, 3D Visualization World Magazine, 3dvisworld.com, September, 2012)
