"'American Metropolitics' is a flashback to a time when solid research dominated policy debate. Orfield... has written an intelligent and insightful book detailing the challenging nature of the suburbs of major metropolitan areas and what that means socially and politically.... Orfield's 'American Metropolitics' offers cutting-edge research and does for the nation what his earlier book 'Metropolitics' did for the Twin Cities.... By offering pragmatic tactics and strategies to combat the seemingly inevitable decline of metropolitan areas, Orfield's work offers hope for the hopeless, and new directions for those too tired to dream dreams." --Bob Hulteen, Director, Twin Cities Religion and Labor Network, "Sojourners", 9/1/2002
"Orfield lays out a comprehensive regional agenda which challenges civic leaders to step beyond parochial solutions and to act regionally to pursue fundamental reforms." -- "Smart Growth Network Newsletter, 5:3, 2002"
"Myron Orfield is the new guru of regional approaches to the issues of growth and decline facing cities and their suburbs.... What makes Orfield's message so compelling is that he presents the problem not just from the perspective of cities, but also from the suburbs view." --Eric Siegel, "The Baltimore Sun", 5/2/2002
"'American Metropolitics'... will take [it's] place, along with Orfield's first book ('Metropolitics'), as [a] useful brick in the wall of reform." --Michael Tomasky, Columnist, "New York Magazine", "The American Prospect", 9/9/2002
"Whether you agree with his policy prescriptions or not, Orfield has found a way to illuminate the most critical --and, often, most baffling --battlefield in American politics." --David S. Broder, "The Washington Post", 5/1/2002
"(interview)" --Art Golab, "Chicago-Sun-Times", 5/27/2002
