Editorial Reviews
Book Description
"World Cities: -3000 to 2000" presents a comprehensive listing of the most important cities in each of the three eras of world history: ancient, classical, and modern. It also tests the proposition that urbanization is a learning process that, viewed against the backdrop of five millennia, is evidence of world system evolution. The extensive data base it assembles graphically illustrates the extraordidnary leap in urban growth experienced in the 20th century and suggests the imminence of a decisive turning point in world social organization.
