Abstract:
Leon demonstrates, in vivid detail, how world cities and urban networks have shaped life over 6,000 years. Asking what it has meant for ordinary people to live in cities transformed by global forces, he offers a fresh, accessible reading of urban history in a compelling theoretical contribution to the field.
