Dr. Jackson is a very persuasive and charismatic speaker and a strong advocate for smart, sustainable planning and design.  I saw him speak at a national AIA event and was blown away that he was able to articulate so clearly what many of us have been thinking.
I'd highly suggest that anyone interested in issues of planning, transportation, community health or related topics to attend this event next week.  I think you'll find it very interesting.

Especially relevant topic in light of health care reform, as accountable care organizations will have a great interest in these issues going forward.
