This book will reconsider this portrayal by describing national trends in small cities and investigating local experiences. It will expand upon the relatively sparse literature on small towns by placing the small town in an urban context. To plan for a more sustainable future, small towns need to be recategorized - not as rural, isolated, and static, but as connected and dynamic urban places.
