www.islandpress.org/bookstore/details.php?prod_id=745

Based on the remarkable success of their Village Homes community in Davis, California, developers Judy and Michael Corbett express their vision for successful residential developments. Of particular interest is their candor in disagreeing with New Urbanists over certain practices, such as a formal grid layout as opposed to the use of cul de sacs.
