  • "The first comprehensive tool-kit for coastal planners and those aiming to achieve effective coastal management worldwide. The purpose of the book is to assist in the sustainable development and use of the world's coastal zones by providing a blueprint for planners and managers who want to produce integrated coastal management plans. Coastal Planning and Management provides a link between planning and management tools, so including all stages in the process, from development through evaluation to implementation. Drawing on examples of successful coastal planning and management from around the world (including Europe, North America, Asia, Indo-Pacific, Africa and the Middle East), the authors are able to provide clear and practical guidelines for the people who make daily decisions about the world's coastlines. Coastal Planning and Management will prove an invaluable resource for professionals in environmental and planning consultancies, international organizations and governmental departments, as well as for academics and researchers in the fields of geography, marine and environmental science, marine and coastal engineering, and marine policy and planning."
  • "Coastlines are the world[alpha]s most important and intensely used of all areas settled by humans. It is this simple fact that directs special attention to the planning and management of coastlines. Coastal resources have been, and will continue to be, placed under multiple, intense and often competing pressures. The use of techniques which attempt to assist in managing the resulting conflicts in a sustainable way will therefore become increasingly important in both developed and developing countries."
