Fascinating travelogueBy GlobalChangeSupercenter5A great read. a good and considered defense of the pros and cons of new urbanism style living from a Vancouver activist. The ideas and reactions are all debatable. but the reflectiveness and honesty of Matt Herns writing are commendable in an era of jeremiads and clipping pasting. In the course of such fine writing. there will be some minor errors and some logical inconsistencies - they really do not detract from such a worthwhile sociology. For me. the footnotes was an especially lively section. but in one aside. the ravings of Kabbalah Madonna come in for some scorn. while the author himself posits in another scetion. talking about the state of the world. that "God himself" may not even be able to "sort this all out." One God-believer calling another God-believer a wacko - strange stuff.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. ... is an urban planner and thought this was very goodBy CustomerMy son in law is an urban planner and thought this was very good0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. ... to get this for class but it is a good collection of essays and expands your knowledgeBy nwellerI had to get this for class but it is a good collection of essays and expands your knowledge.
