Description

Cities provide valuable quality of life amenities like parks, pools and libraries. They're also responsible for providing critical life-sustaining services, things like sanitation, public safety and clean drinking water. Vitally, they need to be able to do it not only today, but for generations to come. So how do we know if our city can afford to do this forever? And if not, what needs to change?
Most people have no idea what the answer is, or how to find it. But have no fear: help is on the way! Luckily, you can read this book while you wait for it to arrive.
Just kidding - you're the help. (Or you will be after reading this book.)
You'll Pay For This kicks off The City Project, a series edited by Emma and Michel Durand-Wood.
