Reviews
Jason Hackworth, author of Manufacturing Decline: How Racism and the Conservative Movement Crush the American Rust Belt:
Many Urbanisms is an excellent work of synthesis, and Murray is a gifted writer. In this book, he integrates a massive amount of urban theory literature in order to emphasize the differences between cities and to challenge the notion of a North to South order within contemporary urbanization.
