What comes to your mind when
you think about the word “city”?
Rush-hour Traffic? Dust and dirt?
Dense human settlements?
Water scarcity?
You are not alone then, most
often that not, only the negative effects of a typical urban environment like
increased crime-rates, pollution and chaos is widely thought about. This is not
a new or a recent way to look at cities. Even many times in the past,
mathematicians and economists have had a pessimistic take on cities and their
expansion.
