Interesting Analysis into Our Modern World

Overstretched, Resource-Scarce, Unregulated. Los Angeles and other world cities are increasingly walking a tightrope that becomes harder to balance on. This book carefully outlines how cities got to this untenable situation and looks at examples of how different communities are combating these problems with mixed results. A read for anyone interested in urban politics, involved in the real estate business, or studying urban and regional planning
