Your PUBLIC LIFE IN URBAN PLACES is just the kind of book I have been impatiently waiting for: concise, penetrating, stimulating, and revealing... enriching public life and well-being in both European and American cities.
Lewis Mumford


“There is no topic more crucial to the well-being of our cities and of our democracy, and no one more qualified to give it the thoughtful attention it deserves.”
“No one has studied the European square more thoughtfully and thoroughly than Suzanne and Henry Lennard.”
