Summary |
Using examples from ancient Sumaria, Greece, Rome, and mediaeval and Renaissance Europe, discusses factors that contributed to the formation of early urban places and examines the form and function of these places. Investigates the impact of industrialization on cities and how the in-migration of large numbers of displaced rural people seeking work changed the nature of cities. |
