“In Cities and Society the nation’s leading urban scholars tell us why cities are in the condition they are in, and what our options are for making them better places in which all groups can live, work, and play” Gregory D. Squires, George Washington University
“The essays in Cities and Society provide the reader with a solid foundation in both neo-Marxist and post-modernist schools of thought. Woven together with short and smartly-written introductions, it is a must read for anyone who wants to understand the way that contemporary academic writers make sense of the urban world.” Daniel J. Monti, Jr., Boston University
