Judging the worth of planning work is one of the main debates in the field today. This book tackles it directly, asking how quality should be defined and how the planning process can be assessed with indicators.
The discussion also addresses public sector management, since planning outcomes are shaped by how the public sector organises and monitors its work. The examples come from British planning, yet the subject travels, and the discussion takes in international experience.
The book is useful for planners, public sector managers and students of urban and regional planning who need to judge whether their work achieves what it sets out to do.
