Listen "Planning Theory for Practitioners"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode we were joined by author Michael Brooks to talk about his book Planning Theory for Practitioners. Despite being retired for seventeen years now, Brooks had much to share about the planner’s role in city development. If you thought the book was about spatial organization theories like Hoyt’s Sector Theory or Burgess’ Concentric Zone Theory you are mistaken. Planning theory in this context is really about how planners should approach their work. If you are an emerging professional or have been in the field many years, this episode will likely speak to you.
