City and Citizens in Modern China: Towards a Scientific Approach to Urban Development

This book offers a comprehensive evaluation of the development of China's key cities from the unique perspective of scientific development. The book includes all Chinese urban conurbations, from prefecture level upwards, to ensure the results, observations, and analysis is comprehensive and balanced.
