In this  revelatory book, Edward Glaeser, a leading urban economist, declares  that cities are actually the healthiest, greenest, and richest (in both  cultural and economic terms) places to live. He travels through history  and around the globe to reveal the hidden workings of cities and how  they bring out the best in humankind. Using intrepid reportage, keen  analysis, and cogent argument, Glaeser makes an urgent, eloquent case  for the city's importance and splendor, offering inspiring proof that  the city is humanity's greatest creation and our best hope for the  future.","brand":"Penguin Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43380361625855,"sku":"9780143120544","price":19.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9780143120544_s600x595.jpg?v=1775584424","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9780143120544","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
