Index.ReviewsThis text takes a global perspective, seeking to address the need to work within the limits of the planet, whilst also addressing the needs of those living in cities...I finished reading Norman's book on my return to my home city of Glasgow, soon to be host to the COP26 summit where world leaders will congregate to report on their progress to the Paris Accord of 2015 and consider the next of their responses to climate change. It would be good if on their travels from across the globe, many of them and their advisors also take the time to read this book. - Robert Rogerson, Institute for Future Cities, University of Strathclyde, UK Author InformationProfessor Barbara Norman PhD is the Foundation Chair of Urban and Regional Planning and Director of Canberra Urban and Regional Futures (CURF) at the University of Canberra.
