Originally delivered as lectures in the early 19th century, this book by Scottish minister and social reformer Thomas Chalmers examines the problems facing large urban areas and proposes solutions based on Christian principles.

This work is a pioneering example of Christian social thought and remains relevant to contemporary debates about urban planning and policy.
