One Hundred Mile City by Deyan Sudjic

This study contributes to the debate about the future of the city. London, Paris, New York, Tokyo and Los Angeles are the ultimate 100-mile cities, set apart by an economic supremacy derived chiefly from their sheer size. With the airline door replacing the city gate, and the shopping mall becoming a civic space, the industrial city has mutated within the space of a single generation, into a completely new species - standardized, monolithic, corporate urban sprawls. This book is a portrait of these monuments to capitalism.
