Sumario: | Over the past thirty years, China?s cities became home to 500 million new residents. China?s urban population is on track to reach 1 billion by 2030.

Combining on-the-ground reportage and up-to-date research, this pivotal book explains why China has failed to reap many of the economic and social benefits of urbanization, and suggests how these problems can be resolved. |
