Asian cities are home to the majority of the global population, yet urbanization varies widely across the continent. This work offers a comprehensive overview of urbanization themes within the Asian context, exploring urban processes in relation to migration trends, national economic policies, and regional development. Historical factors influencing current urbanization trends are discussed, but the primary focus is on reviewing urbanization processes and policy responses across diverse Asian settings. Countries analyzed include India, China, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, South Korea, and Saudi Arabia. Key topics encompass national economic planning, regional development, urban design, and renewal policies, alongside descriptive themes like land use and demographics. Contributions come from esteemed Asian experts and scholars from North America, the Caribbean, and Europe, with editors recognized for their expertise in various regions: Costa (Southwest Asia), Dutt (South and Southeast Asia), Ma (East Asia), and Noble (South Asia). This book is of interest to geographers, ethnographers, linguists, transportation specialists, policymakers, cartographers, historians, and academic institutions.
