An authoritative – and fascinating – investigation into the spatial and social dynamics of cities at a global scale
Shaping Cities in an Urban Age
is the third addition to Phaidon's hugely successful Urban Age series, published in collaboration with the London School of Economics (LSE) and the Alfred Herrhausen Gesellschaft (AHG).
Generously illustrated with photographs, visual data, and statistics, and featuring a series of essays written by leading people in their fields,
