And yet all is not well Richard Florida argues in The New Urban Crisis. Florida one of the first scholars to anticipate this back-to-the-city movement in his groundbreaking The Rise of the Creative Class demonstrates how the same forces that power the growth of the world's superstar cities also generate their vexing challenges: gentrification unaffordability segregation and inequality. Meanwhile many more cities still stagnate and middle-class neighborhoods everywhere are disappearing. Our winner-take-all cities are just one manifestation of a profound crisis in today's urbanized knowledge economy. A bracingly original work of research and analysis The New Urban Crisis offers a compelling diagnosis of our economic ills and a bold prescription for more inclusive cities capable of ensuring growth and prosperity for all.</p> Basic Books hardcover
