520    With land planning, socioeconomics and natural systems as 
       foundations, this book combines urban planning and 
       ecological science in examining urban regions. Writing for
       graduate students, academic researchers, planners, 
       conservationists and policy makers, and with the use of 
       informative urban-region color maps, Richard Forman 
       analyzes 38 urban regions from 32 nations, including 
       London, Chicago, Ottawa, Brasilia, Cairo, Seoul, Bangkok, 
       Canberra, and a major case study of the Greater Barcelona 
       region. Alternative patterns of urbanization spread 
       (including sprawl) are evaluated from the perspective of 
       nature and people, stating land-use principles extracted 
       from landscape ecology, transportation and hydrology. Good,
       bad and interesting spatial patterns for creating 
       sustainable land mosaics are pinpointed, and urban regions
       are considered in broader contexts, from climate change to
       biodiversity loss, disasters and sense of place.
