Regional planning for a sustainable America; How creative programs are promoting prosperity and saving the environment

摘要

In the early 21st century, examples of regional planning in America abound. Even after the significant withdrawal of federal support for regional planning in metropolitan areas, watersheds, and large landscapes, the necessity for regional responses to our most pressing issues and concerns remains and is being acted on. In this useful book, Carleton K. Montgomery presents a collection of examples of regional planning in the United States and identifies a set of lessons to be learned from this flurry of regional planning activity.
