Entertaining, concise, and relentlessly probing, City of Bits is a comprehensive introduction to a new type of city, an increasingly important system of virtual spaces interconnected by the information superhighway. William Mitchell makes extensive use of practical examples and illustrations in a technically well-grounded yet accessible examination of architecture and urbanism in the context of the digital telecommunications revolution, the ongoing miniaturization of electronics, the commodification of bits, and the growing domination of software over materialized form.

City of bits
Given the rapid technological progress that had occurred since the book's publication, reading the author's descriptions of now ordinary processes like emailing, teleconferencing, or online shopping is rather boring. However, the comparisons drawn between the physical built environment and cyberspace are beautiful literary merits worth praising. Mitchell's concerns over social equity and access to cyberspace are still relevant challenges to this day despite the updates in technologies. Overall, it was a thoughtful piece and a decent read.
