“The term ‘urban resilience’ describes how cities withstand shocks and recover. This topic is explored in this collection of papers, with a range of perspectives from mathematics to case studies. … There is something in this collection for almost any reader … . The editor comments that the book is intended to show ‘the depth and breadth’ of urban resilience, and the book did that for me.” (B. Hazeltine, Computing Reviews, March, 2017)
