Review of In Praise of the Intentional City

For stations serving city populations, this is a clear, thoughtful piece that will give your listeners new ideas and information regarding the future of cities.

I can easily imagine dropping this into Morning Edition.

It's the type of piece where I found myself thinking, I'll need to try and remember this so I can tell other people about it.
