Planning Singapore : the experimental city
Planning Singapore : challenges and choices / Stephen Hamnett and Belinda Yuen -- Re-examining Singapore's urban planning and governance framework / Tan Shin Bin and Donald Low -- Singapore's economic development : the dilemma of managing success / John Powers -- More than just a roof over one's head : lifestyle diversity and dynamics in Singapore public housing / Tan Ern Ser and Paveena Seah -- Nature in the city / Lena Chan -- Recycling water and waste in Singapore / Corinne Ong, Lyle Fearnley, Quek Ri An and Chia Siow Boon -- The challenge of climate change for Singapore / Peter Newman -- Singapore's changing relationship with cars / Paul Barter -- Singapore's integrated transit-oriented planning and land value capture : a model for others? / John Good -- Planning the experimental city / Belinda Yuen and Stephen Hamnett

Singapore as a global city is becoming more unequal and more diverse. This has the potential to weaken the social compact which has largely existed since independence and to undermine the social resilience undoubtedly needed to cope with the shocks and disruptions of the twenty-first century.
