The first ldquo;urban centuryrdquo; in history has arrived: a majority of the worldrsquo;s population now resides in cities and their surrounding suburbs. Urban expansion marches on; and the planning and design of future cities requires attention to such diverse issues as human migration; public health; economic restructuring; water supply; climate and sea-level change; and much more. This important book draws on two decades of pioneering social and ecological studies in Baltimore to propose a new way to think about cities and their social; political; and ecological complexity that will apply in many different parts of the world. Readers will gain fresh perspectives on how to study; build; and manage cities in innovative and sustainable ways.
