About this book

City : A Global History by Joel Kotkin. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780297646853.

Joel Kotkin’s short book is an account of the city through history, from its prehistoric precursors to its future. It examines how the urban form has evolved over the course of its history, and places particular emphasis on the timeless role of the city as the crossroads of peoples and cultures, as a locus of trade, and as an artistic centre.
