A pioneering urban economist reveals a
trove of surprising insights on how cit¬
ies work and offers inspiring proof that
the city is humanity s greatest invention-
and our best hope for the future
AMERICA IS AN URBAN NATION. More than two-
thirds of us live on the
3
percent of land that contains
our cities. Yet cities get a bad rap: They re dirty, poor,
unhealthy, crime ridden, expensive, environmentally
unfriendly
...
Or are they?
In this myth-shattering book, Edward Glaeser
proves that cities are actually the healthiest, green¬
est, and richest (in both cultural and economic terms)
places to live. New Yorkers, for instance, live longer
than other Americans; heart disease and cancer rates
are lower in Gotham than in the nation as a whole. City
dwellers use, on average,
40
percent less energy than
suburbanites. And more than half of America s income
is earned in twenty-two metropolitan areas.
Glaeser travels through history and around the
globe to reveal the hidden workings of cities and
how they bring out the best in humankind. Even
the worst cities-Kinshasa, Kolkata, Lagos-confer
surprising benefits on the people who flock to them,
including better health and more jobs than the rural
areas that surround them. Glaeser visits Bangalore
and Silicon Valley, whose strangely similar histories
prove how essential education is to urban success and
how new technology actually encourages people to
gather together physically. He discovers why Detroit
is dying while other old industrial cities—Chicago,
Boston, New York—thrive. He pinpoints the single
factor that most influences urban growth—January
temperatures—and explains how certain chilly cities
manage to defy that link. He explains how West Coast
environmentalists have harmed the environment
and how struggling cities from Youngstown to New
Orleans can shrink to greatness. And he exposes
DZ11
(contimted from front flap)
the dangerous antiurban political bias that is harm¬
ing both cities and the entire country.
Glaeser argues that our success as a country and as a
species utterly depends on the health and wealth of cit¬
ies. This book teems with counterintuitive yet convinc¬
ing connections—how wool begat the Renaissance, how
seventeenth-century Dutchmen helped Japan defeat
Russia in
1905,
how religious competition in colonial
Boston set the stage for that city s current accomplish¬
ments. But Glaeser also highlights the unnerving truth
that America s poor treatment of its own cities over the
past half century helped spawn many of our most dire
problems, from increased inequality to environmental
damage to the recent economic collapse.
Using intrepid reportage, keen analysis, and cogent
argument, Glaeser makes an urgent, eloquent case for
the city s import and splendor. He reminds us force¬
fully why we should nurture our cities or suffer conse¬
quences that will hurt us all, no matter where we live.
EDWARD GLAESER is
the Fred and Eleanor
Glimp
Professor of Economics at
Harvard University, where
he directs the Taubman Center for State and Local
Government and the
Rappaport
Institute for Greater
Boston. He is also a senior fellow at the Manhattan
Institute and a contributing editor to City Journal.
He studies the economics of cities, housing, segrega¬
tion, obesity, crime, innovation, and other subjects,
and writes about many of these issues for the New
York Times blog Economix.
