Reviews for Post-Industrial Cities: Politics and Planning in New York, Paris, and London
"The U.S. literature on the politics of urban development is dominated by the thesis that economic forces override political ones in setting the agenda, amassing the resources, and implementing the plans for large-scale redevelopment projects. Savitch's refreshing counterargument is engaging and well written, and deserves wide attention."
Choice "A highly readable book... Urban planning practitioners will discover much of interest."
