This book is recommended reading for planners preparing to take the
AICP exam. In this new book, the author bridges the gap between
theory and practice. The author describes an original
approach-Feedback Strategy-that builds on the strengths of previous
planning theories with one big difference: it not only acknowledges
but welcomes politics-the bogeyman of real-world planning. Don't
hold your nose or look the other way, the author advises planners,
but use politics to your own advantage. The author admits that most
of the time planning theory doesn't have much to do with planning
practice. These ideas rooted in the planner's real world are
different. This strategy employs everyday poltiical processes to
advance planning, trusts planners' personal values and professional
ethics, and depends on their ability to help clients articulate a
vision. This volume will encourage not only veteran planners
searching for a fresh approach, but also students and recent
graduates dismayed by the gap between academic theory and actual
practice.
