The Public Wealth of Cities: How to Unlock Hidden Assets to Boost Growth and Prosperity Dag Detter, Stefan Fölster

This book by two internationally recognized experts in public finance describes a new way of restoring economic vitality and financial stability to cities, using steps that already have been proven remarkably successful.
