Zusatztext

'It draws on evidence from the City Challenge programme to make valuable wider suggestions about the nature of monitoring and evaluation. It has important messages both for policy makers in central government and for local partnerships involved in regeneration on the ground. Given the government's renewed aim to regenerate cities that was spelled out in the Urban White Paper, this is a book that will prove both timely and important.' Professor Brian Robson, Manchester University, UK
