Assorted City : Equity, Justice, and Politics in Urban Services Delivery / Suptendu P. Biswas New Delhi : SAGE Publications India Pvt Ltd. , 2015. xx, 257 p. ; 24 cm. Assorted City makes an important contribution to urban planning discourses in India by offering an in-depth conceptual and theoretical insight to address theory–practice dichotomy. A unique work on urban services delivery in an Indian city, it narrates how equity and justice are manipulated in the process. It captures generic urban processes in three ways: the questions it raises about planning, the multifaceted methodological perspective it introduces, and the commitment it underlines toward social justice and equity in a democracy. This book explores and exposes the interplay between urban existence and the politics of service delivery.
