Agriculture in Urban Planning:
Generating Livelihoods and Food Security

editor: Mark  Redwood

A collection of academic studies, this volume explores the social, economic, and environmental impacts of urban agriculture projects in developing countries worldwide. Although it may not seem immediately relevant to designers in the U.S., much of the research behind these studies could inform urban redevelopment projects here. For example, studies of wastewater use in agriculture, food security, and education could all interest designers. The book is not necessarily a "must-have," but offers much to those interested in the topic.
