"In Redesigning Cities, Jonathan Barnett explains the five essentials of urban fostering a sense of community, creating livable neighborhoods and workplaces, reducing traffic congestion and providing parking that complements rather than undermines urban living, encouraging social equity, and achieving sustainability by preserving and restoring the natural environment." Of course, to be influential, design must be incorporated into the everyday routines of urban development. Barnett explains how to create institutions - both inside and outside of government - that will help make the "designed metropolis" a reality. He also reveals techniques, materials, and technologies that should be known (but often aren't) to planners, public officials, concerned citizens, and others involved in the business of development.
