Description

When you imagine a city what comes to mind? Is it a crumbling locale jampacked with residents yet devoid of any sense of community? Or is it a densely populated but vibrant network of people coexisting in a kind of chaotic harmony? While we may take for granted cities as institutions, their development has fundamentally changed the way humans live, work, and come together to pursue their goals.


In her new book, Centers of Progress: 40 Cities That Changed the World, Chelsea Follett explains why and how cities tend produce more innovation than rural areas, what makes a city a center of progress, and what we can do to ensure cities stay free.
