Using case studies of developing cities in the ancient, pre-agricultural world, and contemporary cities on the decline, like the financially irresponsible New York City of the mid-sixties, Jacobs identifies the main drivers of urban prosperity and growth, often via counterintuitive and revelatory lessons.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eJane Jacobs was the legendary author of \u003cb\u003eThe Death and Life of Great American Cities\u003c\/b\u003e, a work that has never gone out of print and that has transformed the disciplines of urban planning and city architecture.
