Reviews

"The essays in this volume offer a strong and clear-eyed view of the terminal in-betweenness of the recent new town, which has often fallen short of what we might want but still frequently has achievements worth attention . . . Some of the essays in this collection incline to the technocratic, of interest to specialists, but most are fascinating fascinating, especially for the great variety of new towns the world has birthed."-The American Conservative
