| Urbanisation is caused by migration. However, an essential difference exists between migration in the past and that in the present. This book focuses on several topics that include a comparison between an informational city and a smart city; urbanisation and human impact on biodiversity in Water's Edge Public Spaces (WEPS); a mathematical-modelling approach to urbanisation caused by migration; sustaining urbanisation in a developing economy; and urbanisation and cardiomyopathy vulnerability in an African male cohort. |
