Topics covered include:

Urban community and identity
Urban politics and economics
The relationship between culture and the built environment
Urban nature, climate change, and green urbanism
The development of urban anthropology

Accompanying the main text are shaded boxes describing key works and key concepts related to the central points of each chapter. Each chapter ends with a bibliography.
