Telecommunications and the City by Steve Graham (9780415119023)

Description - Telecommunications and the City by Steve Graham

This book provides a critical review of the relations between telecommunications and all aspects of city development and management. Drawing on a range of theoretical approaches and a wide body of recent research, the book addresses key academic and policy debates about technological change and the future of cities with a fresh perspective. Through this approach, the complex and crucial transformations underway in cities in which telecommunications have central importance are mapped out and illustrated. Key areas where telecommunications impinge on the economic, social, physical, environmental and institutional development of cities are illustrated by using boxed extracts and case study examples from Europe, Japan and North America.
