Sustainable Development is now firmly on the planning agenda and is an issue neither practitioner nor academic can afford to ignore. Planning for a Sustainable Future provides a multi-disciplinary overview of sustainability issues in the land use context; focusing on principles and their application; the legal; political and policy context and the implication of sustainable development thinking for housing; urban design and property development as well as waste and transport. The book concludes by considering how sustainable and unsustainable impacts alike can be measured and modelled; providing real tools to move beyond rhetoric into practice.

We never knew this area had so much history behind it and were delighted to find this little book with great old photos of this area. Who knew one of the houses we pass every day was built in 1740!!! A lot of detail and info in this book.
