After smartphones, smart TVs, smart windows, and other smart products on the horizon, smart cities were the next logical step in trying to create a better, brighter, more sustainable, and economically sound future. A relatively new term, “smart cities” conjures images of a cooperative, wired, prosperous utopia where citizens of all classes achieve a high quality of life. In this audiobook, we look at the qualities needed for future cities to survive and thrive.

    Fascinating future

    If your curiosity for what might be the look of cities to come, this book will give you an audio version of what your eyes might expect for the next few generations. Although it is light reading, there are some fundamental facts and theories that are richly researched and give to you in laymen’s terms. A great book for students of city planning and architecture. I found myself especially intrigued with the smart houses article. Enjoy this tantalizing view of the future.
