An account of the resource
<div><b>Abstract from the publisher : </b></div> </div> This book is about African and Asian cities. Illustrated through selected case cities, the book brings together a rich collection of papers by leading scholars and practitioners in Africa and Asia to offer empirical analysis and up-to-date discussions and assessments of the urban challenges and solutions for their cities. A number of key topics concerning housing, sustainable urban development and climate change in Africa and Asia are explored along with how policy interventions and partnerships deliver specific forms of urban development. Audience: This book is intended for all who are interested in the state of the cities and urban development in Africa and Asia. Africa and Asia present, in many ways, useful lessons in dealing with the burgeoning urban population, and the problems surrounding this influx of people and climate change in the developing world.<br /> <br /> <b>Contents : </b></div> Part I Introduction<br /> Africa and Asia: Two of the World’s Fastest Growing Regions - Belinda Yuen and Asfaw Kumssa<br /> <br /> Part II Climate Change and Urban Development<br /> Climate Change and Living Cities: Global Problems with Local Solutions - Priyanka Anand and Kallidaikurichi Seetharam<br /> Climate Change in the Context of Urban Development in Africa - Kempe Ronald Hope, Sr.<br /> A Region of Contrasts: Urban Development, Housing and Poverty in Asia - Kioe Sheng Yap<br /> The Effects of Climate Change on Urban Human Settlements in Africa<br /> Aloysius Clemence Mosha<br /> <br /> Part III Climate Change and Housing: Case Studies from Africa and Asia<br /> Climate Change and the Housing Environment in Ghana - Kwasi Kwafo Adarkwa and Michael Poku-Boansi<br /> Creating a Sustainable Living Environment for Public Housing in Singapore - Johnny Liang Heng Wong<br /> Climatic Change and Housing Issues in South Africa - Bornwell C.
