Above and Beyond takes an aerial view to conclusively demonstrate how suburban sprawl is forever changing the look of America--and how that can be avoided. Alex MacLean's photographs--many of them combined with computer simulations to illustrate how landscapes are transformed over time--show how traditional development patterns produce more compact cities and towns. In conjunction, the authors introduce communities that have successfully fought sprawl, invigorated their town areas, and overcome the car-culture mentality of sprawl development. The case they make, and the examples they offer, will inspire planners, officials, and concerned citizens everywhere.Campoli, Julie is the author of 'Above and Beyond : Visualizing Change in Small Towns and Rural Areas', published 2002 under ISBN 9781884829512 and ISBN 1884829511.
