Product Description

Product Description

Featuring case studies of cities from around the world, this far-ranging book studies the phenomenal changes that cities have undergone in recent years, and looks at how cities have invented and re-invented themselves in the global context.


From the Back Cover

This text focuses on cities as the dominant form of human settlement for the future. It is about the transformation cities are presently undergoing, and about the making of cities -the ability to influence or even define the urban future by planning and design. Never before has human society gone through a comparable process of urbanization, never before have cities expanded as today. Within a few decennia the process of urbanization has led to agglomerations of unprecedented dimensions. In 1950 New York was with 12 million inhabitants the largest city in the world, today metropolises like Mexico City, São Paulo, Tokyo and Mumbai have far surpassed New York with in habitants numbering sometimes way beyond 20 million.
