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.
