A pioneering urban economist presents a myth-shattering look at the majesty and greatness of cities. America is an urban nation, yet cities get a bad rap: they're dirty, poor, unhealthy, environmentally unfriendly . . . or are they? In this revelatory book, Edward Glaeser, a leading urban economist, declares that cities are actually the healthiest, greenest, and richest (in both cultural and economic terms) places to live. He travels through history and around the globe to reveal the hidden workings of cities and how they bring out the best in humankind. Using intrepid reportage, keen analysis, and cogent argument, Glaeser makes an urgent, eloquent case for the city's importance and splendor, offering inspiring proof that the city is humanity's greatest creation and our best hope for the future.
Edward Glaeser is the Fred and Eleanor Glimp Professor of Economics at Harvard University. He studies the economics of cities, housing, segregation, obesity, crime, innovation, and other subjects, and writes about many of these issues for Economix. He serves as the director of the Taubman Center for State and Local Government and the Rappaport Institute for Greater Boston. He is also a senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Chicago in 1992.

评分好书,不过观其大意即可
评分基本是Glaeser研究成果的通俗化总结。恩,我也是传统城市的拥趸,要能走路,要有吃的,要有玩的。#郊区化去死吧
偶然的一次机会拿到这本书,两周的时间断断续续读完,文字翻译得不枯燥,有一点报告性质的文笔,字里行间流露出作者毕生的经历思考,对于城市的发展,书中列举了很多世界城市成功的历程,如新加坡、巴黎;也有发展没落的城市,如美国的底特律。再次想到那句话,以史为鉴,可以...
评分由一位经济学家来写一本关于城市的书,最大的贡献便在于为普罗大众提供了一个更加多元的视角来看待城市发展过程中的问题。不同于专业的建筑师、规划师,发展经济学对城市的未来始终是乐观积极的,随着受教育程度的逐渐普及,受教育人口的最终选择永远是城市,所以越是能提供便...
评分一本論述城市發展的書,或說是鼓吹城市擴大發展的論述。其內容核心價值其實是節能環保 ~【若你熱愛自然,就離自然遠一點】,其次是城市較有利於知識密集而能激發創意,帶來發展。 這本書讓我想起去年有一本【落腳城市】的書,其藉由描述世界各大都市貧民區的故事,來推論貧民...

评分这本书的标题,以及其英文副标题"How our greatest invention makes us richer,smarter,greener,healthier and happier",毫不含糊地表明了作者的立场。对于一个在城市问题上受Lewis Mumford启蒙且深受其害的读者来说,对这样的观点自然不敢苟同。同时作为一个学经济学的人,我...
