A Guide for the Idealist: Launching and Navigating Your Planning Career

Although I had 20 years of professional experience in the development community this book aided me in understanding how planners think and function in the profession. I did return to complete my undergrad degree in Urban and Regional Planning after a 20 year hiatus and Dr Willson's book helped to give me an enhanced understanding of the steps I will take in the future. This is a must read for young planners, students and seasoned veterans of the profession.

An excellent guide for those starting their careers in the planning profession. This book will aid in keeping the “fire burning” and not lose sight of your ideals. A must-have book for young Urban Planners.
