BOOK
Global Sustainable Cities: City Governments and Our Environmental Future
The first volume of its kind, Global Sustainable Cities is a critical comparative assessment of the actions that major cities around the world are taking to advance sustainability. It examines the advantages—and potential drawbacks—of allowing cities to assume a significant role in environmental regulation, given the legal and political constraints in which cities operate.
