Cities in the Wilderness cover

Former Secretary of the Interior and Governor of Arizona Bruce Babbitt brings fresh thought—and fresh air—to questions of how we can build a future we want to live in. We may have a space program, he points out, but here at home we don't have an open-space policy that can balance the needs for human settlement and community with those for preservation of the natural world upon which life depends. He offers a vision of land use as grand as the country's natural heritage.
