This book is the most comprehensive collection of planning theory books out there, in my opinion. It goes through a historical range of theory, from the mid-1800's to the present. All of the contributers are well-known in the field. Highly recommend for anyone beginning to learn planning theory.

this book is pretty interesting, if not excessively dense in some parts. it is urban planning primer.

The reader is a collection of classical essays on urban and regional planning. Very good for introductory courses of planning theory.
