By 2020, some 400 Chinese New Towns will have been built, representing unprecedented urban growth across the country. The substantial effort on the part of the Chinese government is to absorb up to 250 million people, chiefly migrants from the rural parts of the country. The interdisciplinary publication, written by architects, planners and geographers, explores the new urbanistic phenomenon of the 'Chinese New Town'. Especially commissioned photographs and maps illustrate many examples of these new settlements.
