In order to develop and exercise their skills urban planners need
to draw upon a wide variety of methods relating to plan and policy
making, urban research and policy analysis. More than ever,
planners need to be able to adapt their methods to contemporary
needs and circumstances. This introductory textbook focuses on the
need to combine traditional research methods with policy analysis
in order to understand the true nature of urban planning processes.
It describes both planning methods and their underlying concepts
and principles, illustrating applications by reference to the daily
activities of planning, including the assessment of needs and
preferences of the population, the generation and implementation of
plans and policies, and the need to take decisions related to the
allocation of land, population change, employment, housing and
retailing. Ian Bracken also provides a comprehensive guide to the
more specialized research literature and case studies of
contemporary urban planning practice. This book was first published
in 1981.
