About the Author
Book Description
Review
'There's an exhilaration that comes with reading history written on this scale – much of our life that seems elusive or unconnected begins to make sense. And history is merely prelude to the future: on a planet of cities, our survival depends on seizing some of the clues this book contains.' Bill McKibben, author of Falter: Has the Human Game Begun to Play Itself Out
'Ours is the first century in which the majority of humankind lives in cities. Nightingale in this sprawling, imaginative, and clearly written book explains how we reached this point by exploring the political and ecological roles of cities in world history from ancient Mesopotamia to modern megalopoli.' J. R. McNeill, author of The Webs of Humankind
'Offer[s] a unique point of view that includes many valuable insights about cities …' David R. Conn, Library Journal --This text refers to the hardcover edition.
