Review Quotes: 'Rethinking European Spatial Policy as a Hologram provides welcome evidence of an up-and-coming generation of scholars from across Europe keenly pursuing The European Dream invoked by Rifkin in his seminal book looking at the EU through American eyes. This book reflects their struggles in identifying pointers to a challenging future of the European construct and in particular its spatial or territorial facets.' Andreas Faludi, Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands 'This book provides a thoughtful and stimulating review of the multiple articulations of European spatial policy at the sub-national levels. It is also an exemplary outcome of collaboration among a group of young academics whose networking activities have been supported by the Association of European Schools of Planning (AESOP).' Simin Davoudi, President of AESOP, Newcastle University, UK
