It is not only hugely instructive, but also formidably inspirational, "-- Leon Krier, Master Planner of Prince Charles' Poundbury Project in Dorset, UK, and author of The Architecture of Community "The Successful Strategies and highly effective illustrations of prototypical solutions in the sprawl Repair Manual are extremely useful to both citizens and professionals eager to communicate the many advantages of reconfiguring sprawl into more compact, complete, and connected places. Packed with ideas, this book is a great read and will be a must have reference for years to come!" -- Ellen Dunham Jones, Professor in the School of Architecture at the Georgia Institute of Technology, Coauthor of Retrofitting Suburbia "Haphazard, dysfunctional land use has wreaked havoc on our landscape, waterways, and atmosphere.
