Cities have always played a prominent role in the prosperity of civilization. Indeed, every great civilization we can think of is associated with the prominence of one or more thriving cities. And so understanding cities – their inhabitants, their institutions, their infrastructure – what they are and how they work independently and together – is of fundamental importance to our collective growth as a human civilization.
