Named a Best Book of the Year by NPR and Science Friday A quest to explore some of the most spectacular ancient cities in human history—and figure out why people abandoned them. In Four Lost Cities, acclaimed science journalist Annalee Newitz takes readers on an entertaining and mind-bending adventure into the deep history of urban life. Investigating across the centuries and around the world, Newitz explores the rise and fall of four ancient cities, each the center of a sophisticated civilization: the Neolithic site of Çatalhöyük in Central Turkey, the Roman vacation town of Pompeii on Italy’s southern coast, the medieval megacity of Angkor in Cambodia, and the indigenous metropolis Cahokia, which stood beside the Mississippi River where East St. Louis is today. Newitz travels to all four sites and investigates the cutting-edge research in archaeology, revealing the mix of environmental changes and political turmoil that doomed these ancient settlements. Tracing the early development of urban planning, Newitz also introduces us to the often anonymous workers—slaves, women, immigrants, and manual laborers—who built these cities and created monuments that lasted millennia. Four Lost Cities is a journey into the forgotten past, but, foreseeing a future in which the majority of people on Earth will be living in cities, it may also reveal something of our own fate.

Excerpt from New Cities for Old: City Building in Terms of Space, Time, and Money I have served on numerous professional committees on these subjects. I have de signed a number of large public housing projects and about an equal number of privately financed housing projects. I have had the opportunity of observing the financial methods of speculative builders. For the past ten years I have studied the con icting claims of both public and pri vate housers. I was led to undertake a study of urban reconstruction because I became convinced that the question of what to do with slums was merely a part of the question of what to do with cities and that this, in turn, was merely a part of a still broader question: Can we best preserve our system of private enterprise by drifting or by attempting to solve our problems?
