Financial Times
Dazzling ... Aerotropolis points out that we can still address the oldest needs but in new and liberating ways
Time
Fascinating and important ... blend[s] jargon-free scholarship with shoe-leather reporting to tell readers why they're living and working as they are ... Kasarda and Lindsay are onto something big
Bloomsberg Businessweek
The closest thing to a real-world vision to rival that of [H. G.] Wells ... a mind-expanding ride that reminds us, once again, that humanity needs no apocalypse to reinvent itself
World Politics Review
Aerotropolis redraws the world map ... This lively, thought-provoking book is must reading for anyone interested in how and where we will live and work in a truly global era
Richard Florida (author of THE GREAT RESET)
Thrilling ... the authors are undoubtedly right
Wall Street Journal
If you want to be way ahead of the curve in understanding one of the most important drivers of change for the 21st century, read this book
Paul Romer (founder of Charter Cities)
Fascinating ... The brave new world is on the way, and it's coming in by air
Kirkus Reviews
An insightful, lavishly researched account, full of the micro-data of interconnectedness: the far-flung factories that produce our computers and flat-screen televisions, the state of the art hospitals in Thailand angling for Western customers priced out of the American health care system
Los Angeles Review of Books
A prismatic display of the future of the global economy through a sharp and revealing new lens. It makes the mind travel
Barnes & Noble Review
Required reading for economists, business studies students, architects, urban planners, sociologists - and more than a few novelists and essayists
Independent
Fascinating ... enthralling
New Yorker
A fascinating window into the complex emergent urban future. This book is an extremely sophisticated, often devastatingly witty and ironic, interpretation of what is possible over the next two decades
Saskia Sassen (author of TERRITORY, AUTHORITY, RIGHTS)
Throw out your old atlas. The new version is here
Walter Kirn (author of UP IN THE AIR)
Kasarda ... and Lindsay convincingly put the airport at the centre of modern urban life
Economist
Highly recommended
