From the publisher

From Simon & Schuster, The Preindustrial City by Gideon Sjoberg examines city life both in the past and present.

In his work, Sjoberg takes readers on a journey through the history of cities--from their beginnings and the cities that were independently invented to the different economic, political, and religious structures common in cities.

First line

THE CITY and civilization are inseparable: with the city's rise and spread, man at last emerged from the primitive state.
