Textbook

The textbook arrived just in the condition as stated. The book gives very good detail about urban planning. Where it was in the past, and where it should be going in the future.
I'm sure this will be an excellent book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
Given the price of this volume, I was expecting to receive a five pound tome large enough to hollow out a compartment to hide expensive jewelry and the like. What I received was a slim book barely a half inch thick that won't fill the space I reserved for it on my bookshelf. The price these textbook publishers charge for books is outrageous, I'm shocked at the blatant book racketeering going on in higher education. Textbook racket aside, I think this book will make a solid foundation on which to build my planning career.
Get a Broad spectrum of Urban Planning for the Beginner
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This book gives a broad spectrum of what to expect in the planning field, but there are a few flaws. One is that the book is not written for the technocratic planner, it is written for the beginner or someone who is not going to make planning their career. But this book will give the beginner a broad basis to start from and for this I do suggest the beginner to read this before they choose planning as a career.
