k80uva's review against another edition
3.0
This book was really a mixed bag for me. Much of the content is very compelling and interesting, but at the same time, the text is very dense and at times confusing, and ultimately the book, while laying out the problem very well, doesn't really propose possible solutions. This may be a problem built into the nature of what he's describing, but it's frustrating anyway. However, it does sort of light a fire under you and encourage further reading.

"if park is correct, then the question of what kind of city we want cannot be divorced from the question of what kind of people we want to be."

the ultimate argument that Harvey is making relies on assumptions I just don't agree with him about (the failures and successes of actually existing socialist countries), however much of the book was still incredibly useful regarding urban economics and the history of urban workers' movements
