Change of Plans raises questions that are not commonly posed, suggests new avenues for thought in city planning, and contributes to the growing literature on sustainability by merging it with a feminist approach. The book provides a concrete example of a team of academics, planners, and architects that has struggled to combine an environmental with a non-sexist perspective.
