This book argues that we must radically adapt humanity and reform society, cities, buildings, and our approach to migration in order to coexist in harmony with our natural environments.  Valuable reading for researchers, scholars, and upper-level students of urban studies, migration studies, human geography, ecology, politics, and design.
