<div><b>Extract from the Editorial:</b></div> </div> You are reading the first issue of <i>Current Research on Cities</i>... The first four issues will all be supplements to the journal <i>Cities</i>, prior to an independent launch in 2014.</div> </div> Although <i>Current Research on Cities </i>has much in common with <i>Cities: the international journal of urban policy in planning</i>..., it is also a departure in terms of its aims and content. It is designed to be the first meta-journal in the field of urban studies, and in much the same way that meta-analysis draws on existing research to synthesize and project what is known on a topic, a meta-journal pulls together what we know about a field and keeps researchers up to date.</div> </div> <b>Contents:</b></div> </div> Andrew Kirby - Introduction to a new meta-journal in urban studies</div> Andrew Kirby - <i>Current Research on Cities </i>and its contribution to urban studies</div> Michael Batty - Building a science of cities</div> Brian J. L. Berry and Adam Okulicz-Kozaryn - The city size distribution debate: Resolution for US urban regions and megalopolitan areas</div> Alexander C. Vias - Micropolitan areas and urbanization processes in the US</div> Richard Morrill - Fifty years of population change in the US 1960-2010</div> Naim Kapucu - Disaster and emergency management systems in urban areas</div> Ralph B. McLaughlin - Land use regulation: Where have we been, where are we going?</div> </div> <b>Andrew Kirby </b>is Professor of Social Science at Arizona State University West.</div> </div>
