Product Description
Divided into three sections, this edition of "Urban Land Use Planning" deftly balances an authoritative, up-to-date discussion of current practices with a vision of what land use planning should become. It explores the societal context of land use planning and proposes a model for understanding and reconciling the divergent priorities among competing stakeholders; it explains how to build planning support systems to assess future conditions, evaluate policy choices, create visions, and compare scenarios; and it sets forth a methodology for creating plans that will influence future land use change. Discussions new to the fifth edition include how to incorporate the three Es of sustainable development (economy, environment, and equity) into sustainable communities, methods for including livability objectives and techniques, the integration of transportation and land use, the use of digital media in planning support systems, and collective urban design based on analysis and public participation.

Never too late to read it~
This is a perfect book for those who just entered this field, since the land types, land economy, land whatever will no longer be difficult to tackle with.
Good for Grad School
Needed it for Grad Urban Planning class...Got book, difficult at first with terminology, but than it goes smoothly. It mainly is about draft planning and the creation of...It does a good job outlining all the issues, but making you're own outline of ure notes from the book will help even more...
