商品簡介


This substantially revised and important second edition responds to a changing agenda in government policy and planning practice, putting issues of climate change and obesity at the centre of its concern.

This guide ensures you:
understand the underlying principles for planning healthy and sustainable neighbourhoods and towns plan the collaborative and inclusive processes needed for multi-sectoral cooperation develop know-how and skills in matching local need with urban form discover new ways to integrate development with natural systems design places with character and recognise good urban form guide communities, and advise developers, in the creation of successful and sustainable places for living.

Containing many new case studies and a wealth of new research, this indispensable guide bridges the gulf between theory and practice, between planning authorities, investors and communities, and between different professional perspectives.

Whether you are a student faced with a local planning project; a planner, urban designer or developer involved in new development; a health authority concerned with promoting physical activity; or a community group wanting to improve your neighbourhood; this book is for you.

Reviews

"This is not a book to read cover to cover but a practical manual to dip into. It aims to be of use to a wide range of audiences: from planners to community groups….Those of us working on health impact assessments often find that public health practitioners and spatial planners speak different professional languages. This book will help us to find common ground and common language….Overall, I think this book amply demonstrates the many links between place and health, in a very accessible format. More importantly, it shows how we can use this knowledge practically, to develop better environments for the future." – Margaret Douglas, Consultant in Public Health. Journal of Public Health

"a very attractive teaching text" - Micbert, University of Manchester
