Required Reading on the State of the City
Barnett wrote the one book that seems to summarize all that I have read about contemporary urban planning issues. A hot topic everywhere- but especially in the Sunbelt- this book shows us all where we can go from here.
Lots of good examples and illustrations. Excellent suggestions for further reading in the back if you are interested. This is more than a psalm of New Urbanism.
