“The authors provide a considered and empirically grounded account of the state of planning in a period where multiple pressures have been ramped-up. Clearly the value of good planning has been underestimated for some time. This very well-written account should be of great interest to policy makers as well as academic researchers.” Gavin Parker, University of Reading “This book provides fascinating insights into how planning is actually practised in different places and different sectors in England, casting a light on what is often hidden.” John Sturzaker, University of Hertfordshire
