Description: This is the first book to both assess growth management principles and show how they relate to traditional, new, and emerging growth management practices. It looks at which practices are most - and least - effective in achieving growth management goals. And it explains how and why communities should integrate different techniques to achieve maximum benefits.

Numerous photographs, tables, and figures illustrate the benefits of properly integrated growth management techniques - and the adverse effects of unmanaged growth and poor planning.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 153-165) and index.
