Monocle's July/August double issue is a summer edition packed with quality of life. We lead with Monocle's ranking of the top 25 cities to call home, taking a look at the urban hubs that have it all. In the Edits section we profile retailers who are making their cities better places to live, not just shop. And this month's Expo explores five cities whose chaos and grit mean that they may never be in our top 25 but which all offer an extraordinary quality of life. On sale 17 June.
