"In the era of #MeToo, public attention is now firmly focused on the important issue of gender difference and gender justice. This serious and well-researched collection makes a substantial addition to an expanding literature on gender and urban planning. The section on transport and movement is particularly welcome. The collection demonstrates how an understanding of gender should be core to the theory and practice of planning."
Marion Roberts FHEA, Professor of Urban Design, University of Westminster
