The night-time economy represents a particular challenge for planners and town centre managers. In the context of liberalised licensing and a growing culture around the 24-hour city; the desire to foster economic growth and to achieve urban regeneration has been set on a collision course with the need to maintain social order.Roberts and Eldridge draw on extensive case study research; undertaken in the UK and internationally; to explain how changing approaches to evening and night-time activities have been conceptualised in planning practice. The first to synthesise recent debates on law; health; planning and policy; this research considers how these dialogues impact upon the design; management; development and the experience of the night-time city.This is incisive and highly topical reading for postgraduates; academics and reflective practitioners in Planning; Urban Design and Urban Regeneration.

Hes provided thoughtful and comprehensive insights about the value and meaning of imagery in our culture. I appreciated his straightforward style and his managed ways of dealing with intricacies and subtleties of narrative and visual literacy.His bibliography is a great resource in itself!
