Book Description
Urban sprawl is one of the key planning issues today. This book compares Western Europe and the USA, focusing on anti-sprawl policies. The USA is known for its settlement patterns that emphasize low-density suburban development and extreme automobile dependence, whereas European countries emphasize higher densities, pro-transit policies and more compact urban growth. Yet, on closer inspection, the differences are not as wide as first appears. A key feature of the book is the attention given to France; its experience is little known in the English-speaking world. The book concludes that both continents can offer each other useful insights and perhaps policy guidance.

Book Description
Stimulated by European integration, the need for high-grade transport connections among the major European cities is growing. Coinciding with their reurbanization efforts, the authors argue that the HST is eminently suitable to fill that need, since it connects urban centres and is relatively environment friendly. This comparative investigation in 14 European cities sets out to analyze how the HST can make an optimum contribution to the development of urban regimes.
