Recenzii

"An ambitious and masterly synthesis of planning history worldwide. The Routledge Handbook of Planning History explores the state of the discipline, its theories, methods, achievements and challenges. The range and erudition of analysis by leading scholars in the field makes this a must-read for anyone interested in the evolution of cities. This is destined to become a classic."
Rosemary Wakeman, Fordham University, USA
"Unprecedentedly global in scope, this ambitious handbook interweaves the fullest-ever account of the historiography and current state of the field. Even more usefully, by helping to hone critical questions, it is an inspiration to those who will craft the planning history of the future."
Lawrence J. Vale, Massachusetts Institute of Technology; Past President, Society for American City and Regional Planning History
"The Routledge Handbook of Planning History serves as a valued resource for planning educators and students. It is well written and edited, and brings together a range of recent scholarship that would require substantial effort to assemble from journal articles and other sources. Most importantly, it emphasizes the importance of both understanding planning history, for the successful creation and implementation of plans for contemporary communities large and small. In other words, the ideas of our planning heroes must be understood in their original physical and social contexts and carefully interpreted for current use."
Christopher Auffrey, University of Cincinnati, Review in Journal of Urban Affairs
