Prologue The future of cities and urban lifestyles are talked about in this book, and even though these assumptions are highly based on studies and researches, they are not predictions or prophecies. This book is simply pointing out the directions where city developments are leading us, and the possibilities that people might face in the near future. Then, this book concludes with a new theoretical ideology and an alternative urban typology that is relatively adaptive to current urban environment. Again, it is not a design excises to address and accommodate all the existing or potential issues mentioned. Instead, this could be seen as a manifested reality that tries to prevent important issues and negative possibilities from being ignored.
