Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the 1870s trend of people abandoning rural living in favor of urban life, analyzing the social, health, and environmental effects of the shift on the individual and society as a whole. The author traces the history of town expansion and the simultaneous decrease in agrarian populations, referencing contemporary trends in Britain and Europe as well as the United States. The book explores the effects on health of the shift towards dense urban environments, particularly relating to problems stemming from air pollution and other consequences of urban crowding. It also discusses the tendency of urban residents to spend more time and money on entertainment and leisure activities than rural residents do, and how this trend towards commercial recreation impacts culture and civil society. The author's insights underscore the importance of urban planning and thoughtful town design for the health and happiness of society in light of the rapid urbanization of the era. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
