Age of the City: How Our Future Will Be Won or Lost Together
We will discuss a book about the challenges facing cities worldwide and the strengths cities can draw on to meet these challenges, which include climate change, rising inequality and the problems of a globalized, post-industrial economy.
Ian Goldin is a professor of globalization and development at Oxford University in England. Tom Lee-Devlin is a writer for The Economist, the British business magazine.
