Mathematical models have long been used by geographers and regional
scientists to explore the working of urban and regional systems,
via a system where the equilibrium point changes slowly and
smoothly as the parameters change slowly and smoothly. However,
this all changed with the advent of catastrophe theory and
bifurcation, which enabled the development of models where a quite
sudden change in the position of the equilibrium point results from
a slow, small, smooth change in one or more parameters. First
published in 1981, this reissue of Professor Wilson's classic study
outlines the implications of these mathematical models for
geography and regional science, by way of a survey of contemporary
applications.
