In an atmosphere where civilization is progressing and becoming more aware of the consequences of careless development decisions, rethinking sustainable development-particularly sustainable urban and infrastructure development-has become an inevitable necessity.

Rethinking Sustainable Development: Urban Management, Engineering, and Design considers the role of urban, regional and infrastructure planning in achieving sustainable urban and infrastructure development, providing insights into overcoming the consequences of unsustainable development. This companion volume to Sustainable Urban and Regional Infrastructure: Technology, Planning and Management, overviews all aspects of sustainable urban and infrastructure development.
