Sinopsis

Il volume raccoglie saggi e testi informativi sui temi cruciali - sicurezza, cambiamenti climatici, democrazia e globalizzazione - che interessano le tre metropoli di Istanbul, Mumbai e São Paulo. I testi, scritti da alcuni dei più noti professionisti nel campo dell.architettura, dell'urbanistica, dell'economia e della politica, sono illustrati da fotografie, mappe, diagrammi e statistiche. Proponendo dati e percentuali in modo immediatamente leggibile, il volume riesce così a incuriosire anche i non addetti ai lavori e a stimolare l'attenzione di un pubblico assai ampio su una delle più importanti problematiche della società contemporanea.
