"What distinguishes this book is its depth and historical sweep, instructive detail and lavish illustrations, topicality and abundance of case studies. The author, an architect and urban designer, writes with the authority and clarity of a professional who has to explain how things work to politicians and the public." -- Building, October/November 2006
