In March 2008, Phaidon Press will publish an authoritative and richly illustrated survey of the modern city.

The Endless City has been produced in collaboration with The Urban Age Project at the London School of Economics, and brings together extensive research and analysis from experts in sociology, engineering, architecture and urban policy.

Taking six major world cities as a focal point – New York, Shanghai, London, Mexico City, Johannesburg and Berlin – this book provides an unprecedented insight into both the built environment of these cities and the economic, social and political policies that shape them. With texts written by international experts supported by newly commissioned photographs, maps and diagrams, The Endless City is essential reading for anyone interested in the future of our cities.
