Books like Dream cities by Wade Graham


A cultural history of modern cities - from suburbs, downtown districts, and exurban sprawl, to shopping malls and "sustainable" developments - that allows us to view them through the planning, design, architects, and movements that inspired, created, and shaped them. Dream cities explores our cities in a new way - as expressions of ideas, often conflicting, about how we should live, work, play, make, buy, and believe.
