Description
Questions regarding the shape, size, density and distribution of the city have become increasingly complex and politicised, and the impact of the built environment on social inclusion and quality of life are at the forefront of discussions about urban planning. These are the issues that have led to the creation of The Urban Age Project, a network of organisations, individuals and research projects that focus on sustainable development in the world's cities. The project gathered a group of internationally renowned professionals for six conferences held in six international cities to discuss the future of the contemporary urban environment. This book is the result of the discussions and extensive research produced for these conferences.
The research is clearly presented alongside informative texts written by some of the greatest professionals in the field of architecture, urbanism, economics and politics. The texts are richly illustrated with photographs, maps, diagrams and statistics. The Endless City was produced in close collaboration with the London School of Economics to ensure that all the information presented is accurate and reliable, and the accessible design ensures that this book will become the essential reference tool for everyone involved in urban planning and development.
