‘Entering the realm of infrastructures is of prime importance for anyone wishing to understand contemporary urban issues, whether social, ecological, political or technical – and often all at once. This indispensable Handbook provides guidance on the keys issues from an interdisciplinary perspective, giving a place to cities of the north and south, and highlighting the social forces and impacts of urban materiality.’
