Landscape planning for a new Australian town

Many people I have talked to ,who have read this book ,consider it the most comprehensive and revealing description of the crucial role a landscape architect plays in developing idealized environments at the mega scale as this project most certainly is. The new city of Tuggeranong is the southernmost satellite city of the world renowned Canberra Y plan which in itself is a highly creative solution for expanding Canberra's population upwards to 2 million people by the end of the 21st century.
The Tuggeranong strategy plan attracted a great deal of interest when it was first circulated on the international scene in the 1960's because it placed strong emphasis on designing people into this city from the getgo. Nineteen distinctly different communities averaging 20-25,000 population each have been imaginatively integrated into a common frame of transportation,schools, open space and commercial development unlike anything yet seen in large scale regional development. A very good read if your one of the many planners out there who are urgently looking for alternatives to the current incoherent sprawl that passes for regional growth.
