The grammar of change
In this lively account of visits to Big Local areas in Kent, Blackpool, Leicester and Doncaster, author David Boyle examines the powerful stories of the residents involved and challenges established ideas about what it takes to create local change.
The fear of regret sometimes paralyses people from doing anything at all, because to have done nothing means you have to regret nothing.
Stephen, Arches Big Local area, Kent.
David is the author of a range of books about history, social change, politics and the future. He has been editors of a number of publications including Town & Country Planning, Community Network, New Economics, Liberal Democrat News and Radical Economics. He is a fellow of the New Economics Foundation.
