It is particularly timely in that there are very few academic assessments of the myriad of post-Thatcher policy initiatives, especially since government-commissioned evaluations of City Challenge and the SRB Challenge Fund are still awaited' - Town Planning Review 'a well-structured and comprehensive evaluation of the recent urban (and rural ) policy, which will be extremely useful for undergraduates with an interest in these areas' - International Planning Studies
