Its comprehensive aim of understanding regeneration problems, is given a unique insight by the use of practical European examples. The resultant conclusions target all that are interested in regeneration issues, and I am sure will assist the development of this topic and its process. It leans heavily on examples, so for a change allows realism to surface!Well done and I heartily recommend a read'.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003eQuote from Bruce Duncan BSc FRICS MCIArb, CHair RICS Regeneration Forum.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cb\u003eChris Couch\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor of Urban Planning; and Head of Planning and Housing Studies – Liverpool John Mores University Many old urban areas in Europe are undergoing a radical restructuring of their economic base and are subject to regeneration strategies.
