From New York to New Delhi, COVID-19 has had a devastating impact
on our urban world, turning the physical proximity which is central
to the creative energy of the city into a potentially deadly threat
to our health and well being. Yet most of us live or work in
cities. They are a vital part of both local and global economies
and shape the lives we lead and our interactions with others. How
can we adjust to this new reality and what lessons can we learn
from the past? In this urgently relevant book, leading experts
Edward Glaeser and David Cutler, examine the history and future of
the global city. They argue the biggest threats are those we have
created ourselves - inequalities in housing, health, work and
education - and that we need to address these as a matter of
urgency if our cities are to continue to thrive and drive economic
growth and prosperity. They conclude by proposing some practical
measures that governments and citizens need to act on to ensure the
survival of the city around the world. .
