Description:
EA. «A book about cool urban initiatives, but not just another book about cool urban initiatives. It starts out with a fabulous admission from Ben Hammersley: that the city is the natural habitat of humanity. We need our cities just as much as they need us. They are the engines of humanity, and this book shows 111 different ways that this is happening right now. Organised into sections based upon what we do in our cities (Live, Work, Eat & Drink, Buy, and Play), the book is full of descriptions of small-scale urban initiatives that make our urban lives more enjoyable, and is peppered with brief interviews and mini-essays on the nature of our urban lives and the people that are trying to make them fabulous.»
