Nationally-known urban planner and developer, William E. Finley offers dramatic but feasible solutions in his revolutionary new book Curing Urbanitis: The Metropolitan Disease, Tough Love Remedies for Big City Problems. This forceful, fact-based book opens doors to obvious answers everyone will find logical and close to home, especially his approach to uplifting those caught at the bottom. His bold plan to build pollution-free new “MetroCities” with populations of 500,000 each will stir imaginations.

A RENAISSANCE IDEA,
By Eleanor Roosevelt "brainy" "j" (south miami) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Curing Urbanitis (Paperback)
This author has certainly found a compelling idea and hopefully our new administration (if it comes to pass), heeds his warning and advice.
