Dutch Land-use Planning

This book gives an up-to-date account of the principles - written and unwritten - behind Dutch planning, and shows how the practice sometimes ignores those principles in order to achieve better results. It describes the content of the policies, the measures taken to realise them, and the successes and failures. The book is not uncritical of Dutch land-use planning, but the author values its strengths and believes that planning in other countries could learn from them.
