"An instant classic that belongs in every college and research library in the English-speaking world." CHOICE "...a thoughtful, wide ranging, and ardent analysis of urbanisation at the end of the millenium." Mike Samers, University of Liverpool. "Michael Dear's book has surely achieved its objective: to be not only provocative, but also deeply engaging, its evocations and intellectual traces raising issues of the greatest importance for reflection and action by urban scholars and other citizens." ANNALS of the Association of American Geographers
