This is a response to the need for up-to-date information about three major challenges posed by urbanization: buildings, transportation, and land use. Planning the built environment involves integrating all aspects of human life so that an esthetic, economic, and sustainable system is established.

The goal is to convert chaos to order, to make cities workable, to bar bad development, to encourage the building of necessary facilities, and to...
