Cities are both the engines of innovation and the seedbeds of inequality - how can we keep what's good and break free of the bad?
Never before have our cities been as important as they are now. The drivers of innovation and growth, they are essential to the prosperity of nations. But they are also destructive, plunging us into housing crises and deepening inequality. How can we keep the good and break free of the bad?
In this bracingly original work of research and analysis, leading urbanist Richard Florida explores the roots of this new crisis and puts forward a plan to make this the century of the fairer, thriving metropolis.
Rezension:
'Richard Florida is the great pioneer thinker who first explained how the influx of creative people was reviving cities...[he] takes a hard look at the problems and, as usual, comes up with some smart new policies.'
Walter Isaacson, bestselling author of The Innovators
