The Look and Shape of England

In this absorbing study , Nigel Moor examines the history and politics of planning, from the beginning of the twentieth century to the present day, and shows how the spheres of politics and planning are inextricably linked : the design and spread of the built environment shapes the political agenda, while the decisions of politicians and the passing of planning laws dominate , and often hamper, the planning and construction process.

Written in an open and accessible style, The Look and Shape of England will appeal to anyone with an interest in our built environment and the future welfare and properity of our nation.
