Description
Singapore: World City by Kim Inglis is a stunning pictorial guide to this remarkable Pacific nation. Over 300 full-color photographs showcase the dynamism and success of Singapore, from its transformation into a global superpower in just a few short decades. The book explores how this tiny city-state achieved its remarkable growth, highlighting its history as a British colonial port, its dynamic multi-ethnic population, and innovative governmental and social structures. Author Kim Inglis, a journalist and long-time local resident, takes readers on a series of explorations through Singapore's most notable districts and neighborhoods, revealing the lesser-known corners of the island that few visitors ever get to see. With insightful commentary and graphic detail, this travel pictorial provides a unique insight into how Singapore functions like a well-tuned racing machine.
