VALSSON, TRAUSTI. Planning in Iceland: from the settlement to present times. Reykjavík: University of Iceland Press, 2003, 483pp., . "This book gives an overview of the development of settlements and urban areas in Iceland from its first settlement in 874 to present times. Iceland, being an island with a well-documented history, can be seen as a study in miniature of how human habitat evolves and changes in an interplay with the forces of nature." "As Iceland remains small and sparsely populated, it is eminently suitable for studying how the various aspects of society, nature and planning interact. Until the advent of this book the story of planning in Iceland has been unknown to the world. Iceland is here a case study of the history, processes and difficulties encountered in planning, and scholars and students may find the book a good base for further study. The 1250 maps and pictures, and countless references, make it highly useful for such purposes." - CONTENTS: Bk. 1. Nature : the forces that shape it - Bk. 2. First steps in the shaping of settlements - Bk. 3. Plan development of towns and regions - Bk. 4. Development of systems on a country scale - Bk. 5.
