The Dwell interview points out that in the present day city, developers, not planners, are the most significant actors in shaping the city.
I haven't had a chance to pick up and read the book yet, but I intend to before the presentation at Politics & Prose. (Tomorrow night's session conflicts with Ward 4 Walmart community planning issues, so I won't be attending.)
