The Making of the Urban Landscape

"The clear message I wish to give is that the author has been successful in exploring this approach to the making of the urban landscape: what is offered here is an example of how to get an insight into the activities of those who are at work in changing the face of our towns, and the excellent bibliography tells us where to turn for supporting material. This is strongly recommended for the shelves of the library." Applied Geography

"The book is clearly presented in a technically correct style, with good maps, diagrams and illustrations. The volume can be recommended to those requiring detailed and up-to-date examples of urban morphological change with which to compare their own research." Planning Perspectives

"Commended to urban geographers, planners, developers and conservatists alike." Urban Studies

"A thoughtful and new approach to looking at the physical development and management of urban landscapes." The Professional Geographer
