Recommendation
As more and more people around the world relocate to cities, town planners must consider healthy and sustainable ways of growing urban spaces. Todd Litman of the Victoria Transport Policy Institute assesses the economic and social effects of “smart growth” policies and their implications. Litman’s research analyzes the various facets relating to growth. Unfortunately, the broad spectrum of items covered provides, at best, a superficial understanding of the issues. Even so, getAbstract recommends this report to municipal planners, policy makers and readers interested in the benefits of smart growth.
