Mother of the Megacities. By the year 2000 over half the human population will have left the land and moved into towns.
There will be 26 megacities with over 10 million people living in each. Cairo is one such megacity. It ought to be hell on earth - but it's not. The population grows by a thousand a day, but no one lives on the streets. Is this success unique to Cairo or are there lessons for the rest of the world as we enter a concrete future?
