Summary: Urban planning is one of the most pressing subjects of the times with the majority of the people living in urban areas in North America and Europe and those continuously growing.

One of the reasons for the lag is not knowing where to start or how to proceed and the handbook endeavors supply the knowledge for each, step by step.
