Aerotropolis: The Way We'll Live Next
Autor John Kasarda, Greg Lindsayen Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 feb 2012
From Dubai to Amsterdam, Memphis to South Korea, a new phenomenon is reshaping the way we live and transforming the way we do business: the aerotropolis.
A combination of giant airport, planned city and business hub, the aerotropolis will be at the heart of the next phase of globalization. Drawing on a decade's worth of cutting-edge research, John Kasarda and Greg Lindsay offer a visionary look at how the metropolis of the future will bring us together - and how to make the most of this opportunity.

Fascinating
Provocative
Dazzling ...Aerotropolispoints out that we can still address the oldest needs but in new and liberating ways
Fascinating and important ... blend[s] jargon-free scholarship with shoe-leather reporting to tell readers why they're living and working as they are ... Kasarda and Lindsay are onto something big
The closest thing to a real-world vision to rival that of [H. G.] Wells ... a mind-expanding ride that reminds us, once again, that humanity needs no apocalypse to reinvent itself
Aerotropolisredraws the world map ... This lively, thought-provoking book is must reading for anyone interested in how and where we will live and work in a truly global era
Thrilling ... the authors are undoubtedly right
If you want to be way ahead of the curve in understanding one of the most important drivers of change for the 21st century, read this book
Fascinating ... The brave new world is on the way, and it's coming in by air
An insightful, lavishly researched account, full of the micro-data of interconnectedness: the far-flung factories that produce our computers and flat-screen televisions, the state of the art hospitals in Thailand angling for Western customers priced out of the American health care system
A prismatic display of the future of the global economy through a sharp and revealing new lens. It makes the mind travel
Required reading for economists, business studies students, architects, urban planners, sociologists - and more than a few novelists and essayists
Fascinating ... enthralling
A fascinating window into the complex emergent urban future. This book is an extremely sophisticated, often devastatingly witty and ironic, interpretation of what is possible over the next two decades
