A great overview for anyone interested in urban issues. I was first introduced to Ricky Burdett's work at the 2006 Venice Biennale, where he organized the Architecture and the City main exhibit in the Arsenal. Here Burdett focuses on six cities (Shanghai, London, Berlin, New York, Mexico City, and Johannesburg); there are some really great maps and diagrams in here.

Interesting but way too long for me to read the whole thing. So I'm not embarrassed to admit that I just looked at the pictures/graphs, read the captions and read bits and pieces of the essays. And that still took me a couple hours!

For everyone interested in the future of the world. And for urban studies geeks. And for people who love maps, charts and numbers.

It's huge and hard to take places so I'll probably be reading it for a while.
