This book introduces the readers to the new concept of cognitive cities.
It demonstrates why cities need to become cognitive and why therefore a concept
of cognitive city is needed. It highlights the main building blocks of
cognitive cities and illustrates the concept by various cases. Following a
concise introductory chapter the book features nine chapters illustrating
various aspects and dimensions of cognitive cities. The logic of its structure
proceeds from more general considerations to more specific illustrations. All chapters offer a comprehensive
view of the different research endeavours about cognitive cities and will help
pave the way for this new and innovative approach to governing cities in the
future.
