Metropolitan Planning in Britain is the first comparative analysis and assessment of metropolitan areas and their strategic planning for almost two decades. Changes in population distribution; styles of local government; business practices; and attitudes to the environment have all had an impact on cities in recent years which planners and other policy makers must take into consideration. Based on a series of research projects and the activities of a study group supported by the Regional Studies Association; the book examines in detail nine major urban areas; their specific characters and requirements; and how metropolitan planning is adapting to fulfil those requirements. It also discuses the possible future evolution of metropolitan planning; especially in the light of new regional arrangements and devolution.

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. A Country Music TreasureBy Bennett CohenI bought this book - and I love this book. Although ostensibly about hair - it is actually about the glories of - and the love of - country music; with all its history and in all its variations. Hopefully there will be more such books from Erin Duvall - about clothes; about style; and about the music itself. If; as Waylon Jennings sang (and though few might realize it; Neil Young wrote) you are "ready for the Country" - then you are ready for this. You will smile from beginning to end.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. It was O. K. I did find; ...By JoAnn FiolkaIt was O.K.
