• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

San Francisco is a city of contradictions. Socially liberal, but some of America's worst income inequality. The playground of tech millionaires, yet it also supports vibrant alternative and avant-garde scenes. So how did the city get this way? Lincoln Mitchell traces the roots of the current situation back to 1978.
