Planning and Community Development Summary

Planning and Community Development: A Guide for the 21st Century by Norman Tyler

Two experienced educators offer a general introduction to planning, including the elements of the comprehensive plan, and the tools of plan implementation. Each chapter includes a continuing case study of Rivertown, a fictitious community used for planning exercises. Practical examples and case studies from across the United States supplement the text.

Planning and Community Development Reviews

Impressively thorough. -- Book News
This book is meant to introduce students and laypersons to community planning. It does this very well.... [W]ell written and accessible.... Recommended. -- CHOICE
[A]ccessible, informative, and insightful. I highly recommend it and plan to adopt it for use myself in my first year planning class. It will also be a useful text for faculty teaching sophomore history and theory and for citizen planners, plan commissioners, and members of BZA's who wish to be no ordinary planners. The casual clarity and visual vibrancy of the book exhibit a lifetime of teaching, practice, and personal experience in planning. -- Journal of Planning Education and Research
