Résumé:

"This is a book about the way cities move - about the flow of people, objects and ideas which gives cities their meaning." "In an age of electronic communications and international travel, cities are harder than ever to describe in traditional, static terms, and the need for a clear understanding of the dynamics of urban flow has never been greater. With contributions from architects including Foreign Office and Zaha Hadid, and artists including Richard Wentworth, Mark Dion and Nathan Coley, Breathing Cities investigates the ideas which are revolutionising urban space."--Jacket.
