After smartphones, smart TVs, smart windows, and other smart products on the horizon, smart cities were the next logical step in trying to create a better, brighter, more sustainable, and economically sound future. A relatively new term, smart cities conjures images of a cooperative, wired, prosperous utopia where citizens of all classes achieve a high quality of life. In this audiobook, we look at the qualities needed for future cities to survive and thrive.

If your thinking this is about technology in building a Smart City your wrong. This is more about building a smart city with the mind set of today political issues. It does talk about some of the current and little of future technology. I will agree that some political issues will work just that with the build but not the complete answer.
