Publisher's summary

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.

Misleading title

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.
