Community Analysis and Planning Techniques

Reviews / Votes

A really useful book for practicing planners and planning students....provides a comprehensive background to the concepts underlying forecasting methods in the population and economic fields and critically assesses their strengths and weaknesses. -- Ian Masser, Sheffield University Lends itself very well to use in a graduate or an advanced undergraduate planning methods course * Apa Journal * Written so that one can work through it with or without classroom guidance and come away with a solid background in the mechanics, and some of the subtleties, of the methods. It will make learning, reviewing, and teaching important techniques a much more manageable task. * Journal of the American Planning Association * What Klosterman has done is to write a book which assumes the reader to have only rudimentary mathematical skill but which develops this skill to a level where it is of practical usefulness. This book is thus uniquely tailored to the needs of planning students and deserves to become a standard text. -- Michael Batty, University of Wales
