Richard Florida's Books![]() What's new?: Who's Your City?International Best-seller. Amazon book of the month. How the Places We Pick Shape the Lives We LeadSomething of a departure from his more macro-level work, Florida’s next book, Who’s Your City: How the Places We Pick Shape the Lives We Lead, is a personal look at why our choice of location may be the most important decision we ever make. It has profound affects on everything from our jobs, careers, and real estate to our social lives, “mating markets,” and overall life satisfaction. Make no mistake, Florida’s signature “big ideas” are still there – from the “spiky world” to the “means migration” – but this book also serves as a practical guide for its readers, pushing them to explore the places they live – and the places they could. Due out in early 2008, City is sure to follow in the footsteps of the Florida lineage. | |
