About the product

A series of studies on cities in the developing world where populations are expected to exceed eight million by the year 2000. Each book in the series focuses on a particular city and aims to provide a better understanding of all the dynamic aspects of its character in order that effective population policies can be formulated. There is an extensive examination of: demographic trends and needs; economic background; early and recent population strategies; key sectors and issues; distribution of public investment and resource generation. These studies provide valuable information on each city and insightful evaluations of its population policies and will offer abundant material to those studying third world urbanization.
