ABSTRACT
There were two main purposes behind the compilation of this book. Several authors have remarked upon the fact that, 'although many hundreds of games have been devised relevant to urban planning, very few have been published in an operational form' [ 1 ]. The dearth of comprehensive operator's manuals has thus limited the extent to which simulations have been used by any but their authors, and this in turn has contributed to the general lack of evaluation and progress in the simulation field as a whole.
