- Summary:
- A century ago, Ebenezer Howard published Tomorrow: A Peaceful Path to Real Reform. Fifty years later, the book led to an act of Parliament and the designation of over 20 new towns just in the UK. It has since been translated into many languages and has influenced urban and rural development around the globe. To coincide with the celebration of this landmark book's centenary, Social Cities explores both the impact of Howard's work and its potential influence on planning for the next century.
