While both urban and rural studies have long thrived, the suburbs have remained curiously neglected, and the inherent needs and problems of suburban living remain unaddressed. Suburban space has traditionally been understood as a formless remnant of physical city expansion, without a dynamic or logic of its own. This book challenges this view by offering a definition of the suburb as a fluid, dynamic entity with an interdependent geography, situated within the context of wider urban systems.
