This is a passionate book about the evils of sprawl and the opportunities for moving beyond it. Duany and Plater-Zyberk are icons of New Urbanism, and this book has been called the new "bible" of that movement. The book is accessible to a lay audience but will also be useful to design professionals, planners, and government officials.
