Reviews

The book provides a comprehensive account of the topic of smart cities as a human-driven approach for supporting urban transformation. ... useful reading for spatial planners, policy makers and place managers that are more concerned with a search for answers to questions such as, what does it mean for citizens living, working and playing in a smart city? (Eduardo Oliveira, Environment and Planning B, 2017)
