Toward Sustainable Communities

“A further improvement of an already excellent book. The authors make several particularly significant contributions to the study of America’s sustainable growth movement: they place the evolution of sustainability policies within a coherent historical and conceptual context accessible to lay readers and specialists; they illuminate the nation’s subnational governments as ‘the policy and idea incubators of the nation’ in sustainability policymaking; and their analysis nicely combines discussion and evaluation of substantive policy and conceptual issues. The updated, expanded coverage of subnational sustainability policies is supplemented by a very useful, enlarged discussion of important policy research questions posed by the book. Not least important, the book’s lucid and cogent style makes it an excellent teaching resource.” –Walter A. Rosenbaum, Interim Director, Bob Graham Center for Public Service, University of Florida
