520 _aIn this book the authors examine U.S. policy in the light of the Canadian experience, and use that experience as a starting point to generate specific policy recommendations. Their recommendations are designed to help the U.S. further its urban revival, build more walkable, energy-efficient communities, and in particular, help land use adapt better to the needs of the aging population.--Publisher's description.
