ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Kenneth T. Jackson

Kenneth T. Jackson is someone who was really interested in learning about cities and how they grow and develop over time. Think about a city like a big puzzle with lots of little pieces that fit together to create a whole picture. Jackson spent a lot of time figuring out how these pieces fit together and what makes cities different from each other. He also talked to lots of people who lived in cities to learn about their experiences and how they felt about the place they called home. Overall, Jackson helped us understand cities a lot better by looking at them from different angles and putting all the puzzle pieces together.
