Place & Prosperity: How cities help us to connect and innovate: by William Fulton Published by Island Press 2022

Where are you from? Where do you live? These are the two most common and powerful questions we ask and answer to each other. It's deeply personal to our sense of identity and place in a community. What is this "place" we call home? How do places come into being? Why do we long to go back "home" ? Or, do we want to explore and find a new community?

Mr. Fulton has these questions too and he has learned a few lessons along the way -coming from a small town and then traveling the world. This book is his own life long lessons and answers searching for "the place". How they are shaped and how we can change them.

Why community would you like to live in? A daily walkable city to you job and supermarket or would you still prefer connect via car? In national surveys again and again it was a 50/ 50 split. In our conversation we discuss what it means to create places like these and why they come into reality.

I hope you'll enjoy this conversation with your hot cuppa this morning.
