By placing the city within a wider network of urban and rural development and in a comparative framework, the authors offer new insights into the nature of a metropolis.

Bringing together specialists from both archaeology and history, this ''total'' history presents an integrated view of the city''s history from its very beginnings, tracing its astonishing expansion through to its subsequent decline in the sixteenth century. The authors'' analysis of its commercial growth, industrial production, socio-political changes, and cultural creativity is grounded in an understanding of the city''s structure, its landscape and its built environment.
