Description

New York, the most densely populated city in North America, is the home of the United Nations and a hub of international finance, art, and entertainment.

Strategically located on one of the world's largest harbors, ""New Amsterdam"" was founded by the Dutch in 1625.

A must-see for tourists from around the world, New York is a powerful symbol of American culture.

The city welcomes immigrants, with more than a third of its population foreign born. And it has successfully dealt with crime - it is the safest large city in the U.S.

Though devastated by the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, New York continues its strong recovery. ""New York"" offers readers a well-ordered introduction to this complex city, from its history and amazing diversity to its economy, infrastructure and management, and the possibilities ahead.
