Since its publication in 1970, "Urban Planning" has been the unrivaled standard work and handbook for urban planning for students and practitioners. It includes comprehensive fundamentals, terms, procedures, and planning elements of modern urban planning. It also takes into account related specialized planning areas such as transportation, water supply and disposal, wastewater and energy management, as well as open space planning. The work is designed for all those who view urban planning not as a singular artistic endeavor, but as an interdisciplinary challenge. The 5th edition has been thoroughly revised to reflect all current concepts and regulations, including planning law, technical specifications, and the incorporation of European standards.
