The book explores the evolution of urban planning in America, tracing the development of New Urbanism as a culmination of over a century of ideas. Emily Talen categorizes city-making into four distinct "cultures": incrementalism, plan-making, planned communities, and regionalism. Through her analysis, she highlights the connections, overlaps, and conflicts among these approaches, revealing the recurring themes in the pursuit of better urban settlements.
