OverviewOffers a review of conditions and trends in cities and other settlements around the world, and of the urbanization process through which more than half the world's population will soon live in urban centres. The book shows the positive and negative side of cities, and how the growth in urban population has slowed in most parts of the world, while the scale of urban poverty has been underestimated. Actions to address the problems of poor housing and environmental degradation are also examined.
