Review

“This concise, accessible book is packed with updated information, web links, and insights from the field.  It demystifies common pollutants and remediation processes, and elucidates the strategies behind brownfield redevelopment and site design. Nice diagrams and photos appear throughout, and the case studies are diverse, non-technical, and interesting.” (Robert Simons Professor of Urban Planning and Real Estate, Cleveland State University 20110301)

"Intense interest in brownfields has produced many technical books on remediation. Principles of Brownfield Regeneration (its title a nod to John Lyle''s regenerative approach) aims to be ''a brief, concise, clear primer'' to guide professionals, officials, and activists in planning brownfield projects. For the most part. it succeeds very well. . . . Several landscape architecture firms are making good livings from brownfields; some are consultants, while others buy and remediate not-too-toxic sites suitable for regeneration via planting and soil treatment. Many more landscape professionals could get involved, but lack the basics to take the plunge. This book provides a real service, an economic opportunity in hard times. . . . Without explicitly saying so, Principles of Brownfield Regeneration is an extremely timely condemnation of bottom-line values, lacking creativity or civic conscience, that accept land dereliction as a nonnal cost of doing business." (Landscape Architecture Magazine 20100818)

"Anyone who needs to get up to speed on brownfields will wear this book out."
(Planning )

“This book presents a comprehensive roadmap for redeveloping brownfields in the twenty-first century.  The authors take the reader through the process from A to Z, identify potential pitfalls, and provide practical case studies.” (William J. Penn President and CEO, Clean Land Fund )
