Would recommend this book to anyone interested in urban planning, community building, community organizing, real estate, government, or just want a stronger understanding of the history of why cities succeed.
People run the world. People live in cities. People are the greatest assets of cities. It's important to understand why people choose to live where they do. Attract the right kind of people to help grow and strengthen communities.
