This book deviates from convention by suggesting non-financial factors as the source of sanitation problems on the continent of Africa, and argues the need to re-connect urban planning to public health. These two professions are consanguine relatives and emerged to combat the negative externalities of the industrial revolution and concomitant urbanization. However, with the passage of time, the professions drifted apart. Today, more than ever, there is a need for the two to be re-connected. This book is the first major academic work to demonstrate the inextricably intertwined nature of urban planning and urban public health.
