Abstract
THE Tennessee Valley Authority has now been established for ten years, and the experience of a full decade renders possible an attempt to assess its achievements and their significance, both in relation to the problems of regional planning in Great Britain and to the no less difficult range of administrative problems involved in public control and the relations between local and central government. In giving us the first detailed account published in Great Britain of this achievement, Dr. Huxley provides an admirable complement to Prof. C. Herman Pritchett's "The Tennessee Valley Authority: a Study in Public Administration", copies of which only now appear to have reached this country, although it was published in the United States in 1942.
