Urbanization [PDF ebook] 
Global Trends, Role of Climate Change and Effects on Biodiversity

Urbanization is caused by migration. However, an essential difference exists between migration in the past and that in the present. This book focuses on several topics that include a comparison between an informational city and a smart city; urbanization and human impact on biodiversity in Water’s Edge Public Spaces (WEPS); a mathematical- modeling approach to urbanization caused by migration; sustaining urbanization in a developing economy; and urbanization and cardiomyopathy vulnerability in an African male cohort.
