Książka Miejskość i duch innowacyjności zawiera autorskie artykuły analizujące współczesne zjawiska społeczne, kulturowe i gospodarcze związane z miastem i szeroko rozumianą innowacyjnością. Pojęcie to funkcjonuje w książce w wielu kontekstach związanych między innymi z zaangażowaniem obywatelskim, funkcjonowaniem miejskich przestrzeni publicznych, tworzeniem przemysłu kreatywnego, kampanii promocyjnych, procesem transferu technologii, a także nowej formy upamiętniania bliskich, jakimi są wirtualne cmentarze. Powiązanie tematyki miejskiej z refleksją nad innowacyjnością pozwala w nowej perspektywie spojrzeć na toczącą się aktualnie debatę próbującą odpowiedzieć na pytanie: jakie ma być współczesne miasto, jak ma funkcjonować, w jaki sposób może wykorzystywać potencjał mieszkańców, instytucji i firm, które działają na jego obszarze? Książka adresowana jest zatem do wszystkich, którzy interesują się współczesnymi problemami miasta i jego rozwoju. W sposób szczególny publikacja powinna zainteresować socjologów, ekonomistów, urbanistów, geografów społecznych oraz studentów kierunków społecznych, ekonomicznych i urbanistycznych.
