| book description |

Together, we must design more resilient cities where future generations can thrive. What makes a city smart? Many think itâ€™s just sensors or AI-powered tech. But tomorrowâ€™s cities must offer more than infrastructure and innovationâ€”they must make space for people to live fully, show up as themselves, shape the cityâ€™s evolving soul, and provide equitable spaces that adapt to climate change. To fulfill this vision, we must all become citizens â€œoneâ€â€”not as one person, but as a movement for collective transformation in an uncertain, extraordinary future. Citizen One is Douglas Stuart McDanielâ€™s bold dispatch from the edge of that future: a raw account of four years inside NEOM, Saudi Arabiaâ€™s ambitious and controversial vision for urban living. Drawing on McDanielâ€™s journey through ancient ruins, high-tech labs, and think tanks, this book weaves personal narrative with hard-won insight into urban innovation, digital infrastructure, AI, climate resilience, and the ethics of city-making. Through interviews with architects, city scientists, futurists, and storytellers, Citizen One explores the radicalâ€”and riskyâ€”choices shaping the cities of tomorrow.
