Good examples and salient points throughout. Could easily be incorporated into classrooms on urban planning. I found it very helpful as a review prior to preparing a presentation on fundraising for a local park. Recommended.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Five StarsBy joshua finleyGreat book. Short and simple2 of 4 people found the following review helpful. This book is dumb.By sofieI got this text assigned as a class reading and I was very disappointed. The first part is a clueless blabla about whether or not to apply level of standard to park planning. The second half is about where in an urban context land for new parks can be found. This section is simply a list. with 2 pages of irrelevant text to each point. Harnik doesnt ever cite any relevant work or studies. I would not assign such a book in a grad level course. I told my teacher the same thing.
