In 2009, for the first time more than half the worlds population lived in cities. In a time when family, friends and co-workers are a call, text, or email away, 3.3 billion people on this planet still choose to crowd together in cities. Not too long ago, it looked like our cities were dying. Understanding the modern city is the lifes work of Edward Glaeser. He uncovers questions whose answers are both counterintuitive and deeply significant. Glaeser will take us around the world and into the mind of the modern city to reveal how cities think.
