Making Cities Liveable

This book is about cities. It is also about homes. Today, more than half the world’s population has made cities or urban areas their home—a figure that is expected to rise to nearly 70% by 2050. As a rapidly growing population migrates to cities in search of a better life, almost seven billion people will be jostling for space, food, jobs and services. The planning and governing of cities are among the greatest challenges of our time.
