Understanding the modern city & the powerful forces within it is the life`s work of Harvard urban economist Edward Glaeser, who at forty is hailed as one of the world`s most exciting urban thinkers. Travelling from city to city, speaking to planners & politicians across the world, he uncovers questions large & small whose answers are both counterintuitive & deeply significant. Should New Orleans be rebuilt? Why can`t my nephew afford an apartment in New York? Is London the new financial capital of the world? Is my job headed to Bangalore? In Triumph of the City, Glaeser takes us around the world & into the mind of the modern city -- from Mumbai to Paris to Rio to Detroit to Shanghai, & to any number of points in between -- to reveal how cities think, why they behave in the manners that they do, & what wisdom they share with the people who inhabit them. `A masterpiece` Steven D. Levitt, co-author of Freakonomics `A brilliant read: persuasive & provocative` Time Out ` Replete with lightly borne learning, this is a tremendous book` Bryan Appleyard, Literary Review ` Fascinating` Sunday Telegraph ` Comprehensive, compelling & strongly recommended” Tim Harford, author of The Undercover Economist & Adapt `A hymn to the city` Metro ...

Chris Boardman is the 2017 winner of the Cross Sports Cycling Book of the Year for his autobiography Triumphs & Turbulence. ` The true inspiration was that Olympic gold won by Chris Boardman in Barcelona... I was so in awe of Chris Boardman` Sir Bradley Wiggins You may know him as the much-loved co-presenter of ITV`s Tour de France coverage or enjoyed his BBC Olympic coverage, but beyond the easy charm Chris Boardman is one of our greatest, most inspiring cyclists. Boardman`s lone achievements in the 80s & 90s
- Olympic track gold, the world hour record, repeatedly claiming the yellow jersey in the Tour de France
- were the spark that started the modern era for British cycling. His endeavours both on & off the bike have made him the founding father of current golden generation
- without him there would simply be no Hoy, Wiggins or Cavendish. It is a story full of intrigue: from Olympic success, to the famous duels with Graeme Obree & the insanity of the Tour de France. Chris became a legend for his combination of physical ability & technical preparation, almost single-handedly taking British cycling from wool shirts & cloth caps into the era of marginal gains. Indeed, after his career on the bike ended, a new chapter began as the backroom genius behind GB cycling. As head of the R&D team known as The Secret Squirrel Club, Chris has been responsible for the technical innovations that made the difference in 2012 & developed Boardman Bikes, which has become the country`s bestselling premium bike range.
