"More people than ever are living in North America's suburbs. But are the suburbs becoming more unmanageable in the face of the rapidly changing social, technological, and environmental conditions of the twenty-first century? Are the planning processes that regulated development in the suburbs for the last fifty years breaking down? Will suburban sprawl continue to be the inevitable result?".
"Planning the New Suburbia challenges established planning conventions and proposes a new approach to the design and regulation of suburban development that recognizes its evolutionary nature. The approach encompasses new as well as existing communities, and it encourages and outlines an additive process of gradual, small-scale transformations that enable a neighbourhood to develop holistically."--BOOK JACKET.
