In Cities and the Wealth of Nations, acclaimed urban theorist Jane Jacobs challenges conventional economic thinking with her groundbreaking ideas about how cities drive national prosperity.

Jacobs argues that cities—not nations—are the true engines of economic growth. Through her sharp observations and practical examples, she explores how city economies evolve, adapt, and influence global trade and innovation. From examining regional imbalances to the dynamics of import replacement, Jacobs provides a fresh way of understanding the modern economy.

A must-read for anyone interested in urban development, economics, city planning, and sustainability, this influential book continues to inspire policymakers, thinkers, and city builders around the world.
