Systematic study of the geography distribution of the
wood-processing industry has received recent Soviet attention, yet
the results have been disappointing. Soviet work has been
descriptive and lacking in critical analysis of the location
problem. In particular, there has been little, if any, attempt to
assess the geographic distribution of the industry within the
general context of location theory and to evaluate the role played
by individual location factors. This monograph is a case study in
the application of linear programming techniques to the analysis of
transportation patterns within the wood-processing industry. It
will add to North American studies not only a knowledge of the
location of wood-processing industries but also a better
understanding of the factors which have influenced the location of
wood-processing in the Soviet Union. (University of Toronto
