This book is about a new global order for the great cities of the world with emphasis on Tokyo. Starting with modern theories of the city and the meaning of information technology to architecture, the architect draws an original picture of today’s major cities through precise analysis in the concrete reality of Tokyo. From research that began as long ago as 1970, the author has completed analysis of more than 600 buildings, and through them described the wonderful vitality and dynamic processes which characterize the modern city.
