推荐理由 

Reason for Recommendation 

二十世纪后期是经济全球化的时代。二十一世纪的第一部分将是城市时代，即城市时代。在人类历史上，有一半以上的人口首次居住在城市地区。有关城市的形状，大小，密度和分布的问题变得越来越复杂和政治化，建筑环境对社会包容性和生活质量的影响已成为讨论城市规划的首要问题。这些都是导致创建“城市时代计划”的原因，该计划是一个由组织，个人和研究项目组成的网络，致力于全球城市的可持续发展。该项目聚集了一批国际知名的专业人士，在纽约，上海，伦敦，墨西哥城，约翰内斯堡和柏林这六个国际城市举行了六次会议，讨论了当代城市环境的未来。这些会议提供了一个平台，从中可以讨论建筑师，城市主义者和政治人物应如何在不限制增长的前提下规划基础设施和发展，并改善社会和经济生活。

这本书是这些会议的讨论和广泛研究的结果。这项研究与一些由建筑，城市主义，经济学和政治领域的最杰出专业人士撰写的资料丰富的文章清楚地呈现，其中包括理查德·森内特，萨斯基亚·萨森斯，雷姆·库哈斯，德扬·苏迪奇和里奇·伯迪特，并附有丰富的照片，地图，图表和统计数据。该书是与伦敦经济学院紧密合作制作的，以确保所提供的所有信息都是准确和可靠的，并且易于访问的设计确保该书将成为参与城市规划和开发的每个人的必不可少的参考工具。

The late twentieth century was an era of economic globalization. The first part of the 21st century will be the urban age, the urban age. For the first time in human history, more than half of the population lived in urban areas. Issues related to the shape, size, density, and distribution of cities have become more and more complex and politicized. The impact of the built environment on social inclusiveness and quality of life has become the primary issue in discussing urban planning. These are the reasons that led to the creation of the "Urban Age Plan", which is a network of organizations, individuals and research projects dedicated to the sustainable development of global cities. The project brought together a group of internationally renowned professionals. Six meetings were held in six international cities: New York, Shanghai, London, Mexico City, Johannesburg and Berlin to discuss the future of contemporary urban environments. These meetings provide a platform from which to discuss how architects, urbanists and politicians should plan infrastructure and development without limiting growth, and improve social and economic life.

This book is the result of discussions and extensive research at these meetings. This research is clearly presented with informative articles written by some of the most prominent professionals in the fields of architecture, urbanism, economics, and politics, including Richard Sennett, Saskia Sasens, Ray Koolhaas, Dejan Sudic and Rich Burdit, with rich photos, maps, graphs and statistics. The book was produced in close collaboration with the London School of Economics to ensure that all the information provided is accurate and reliable, and the easy-to-access design ensures that the book will become an essential reference for everyone involved in urban planning and development tool.
