About the Book

This second volume of the Sustainable Urban Development Series focuses on assessing the impact of the urban process and providing statements as to the sustainability of development plans, programmes and projects. It sets out the regulatory framework and revisits the methodological issues presented in Volume 1 of the series, providing detailed examination of environmental, economic and social evaluations of sustainable urban development. Sustainable Urban Development Volume 2: The Environmental Assessment Methods draws attention to the impact that development - in the form of buildings, utilities and transportation systems - has on natural resource consumption and the quality of cultural heritage.
