In this short, enthusiastic video, Jonathan Reichental unboxes his newly published Wiley book on smart cities. He shares his child‑like excitement as he opens the glossy‑covered volume, notes the fresh‑print smell, and flips through pages filled with drones, graphs, and other visuals. Reichental highlights that the nearly‑400‑page work offers deep insights into the future of urban environments and is intended to inspire readers to create better, higher‑quality‑of‑life cities. He concludes by urging viewers to purchase the book via smartcitybook.com and hints at sending copies to a select group of people.

Chapters

Hi, everyone. Look what I have here. I've just picked up a box from Wiley. I think I know what it is. I'm very excited. I waited for this day for a long time. I'm pretty giddy like a little child right now. Very excited to see what's inside the box. Okay. You're seeing it with me for the very first time. Okay. Opening up the box. Take a look. What do we got here? Let's throw this away. Hey, hey, hey. Look at that. That's a book. I wrote a book. Wow. Wow, man. That is so cool. Let's have a smell. It's got that fresh, recently printed smell. Look at that. Nice. Nice glossy cover and back. Nice. Look at these. Got some great pictures in here. There's a drone. There's some graphs. We have to have graphs, more pictures. Look at this thing. Okay, what have we got here? We got almost 400 pages of deep insights on the future of our cities. This is the book that is going to influence and inspire people to do the right thing and create better cities and a better quality of life. I couldn't be more excited. This is wonderful. Now I got to figure out who to send these to. I got a whole pile of them here. I have a feeling I know several already. So I hope you'll run out and buy a copy, smartcitybook.com and I hope you'll enjoy it and you'll find it valuable. Thank you.
