Abstract
:
"This book balances an authoritative, up-to-date discussion of current practices with a vision of what land use planning should become. It explores the societal context of land use planning and proposes a model for understanding and reconciling the divergent priorities among competing stakeholders; explains how to build planning support systems to assess future conditions, evaluate policy choices, create visions, and compare scenarios; and sets forth a methodology for creating plans that will influence future land use change."--BOOK JACKET.
