Rezensionen
'This is a very interesting book that shows solid empirical evidence (mainly from archival documents) and analysis...The book is a valuable resource for historians, planners and those interested in the development of Mexico City and the analysis of urban social inequalities through the access to urban services and the use and structure of the city.' -International Planning Studies
