Description: The title - Connections - symbolises relationality, possibly the most outstanding element linking Patsy's ideas. The book showcases the wide international influence of Patsy's work and celebrates the whole trajectory of work to show how many of her ideas on for instance the role of theory in planning, processes of change, networking as a mode of governance, how ideas spread, and ways of thinking planning democratically were ahead of their time and are still of importance.

Review Quotes:

"I believe the publication aims to attract people's attention to Healey's insightful ideas that 'predate the publication of' and that are 'overshadowed' (p. 4) by her renowned 'collaborative planning'." - Kang Cao, Zhejiang University, China
