Shlomo Angel Reviews 'City of Light'

Professor Shlomo Angel recently reviewed 'City of Light: the Making of Modern Paris' by Rupert Christiansen in The Wall Street Journal.

"City of Light" should whet readers' appetites to pursue Haussmann's story further. When it comes to tales about the making of cities, the tale of Baron Haussmann ranks among the most inspiring, the one richest in lessons still relevant today. Our cities will need massive retrofitting in this century, and we could use a new generation of farsighted civil servants certainly more transparent and more accountable than Haussmann to pursue the common good.
