This unique Handbook examines the impacts on, and responses to,
economic geography explicitly from the perspective of the behavior,
mechanics, systems and experiences of different firms in various
types of industries. The industry studies approach allows the
authors to explain why the economic geography of these different
industries exhibits such particular and diverse characteristics.
The sectors and industries covered include:- traditional heavy
industry and engineering - creative and cultural industries -
knowledge sectors - natural resource-based and environmental
sectors - knowledge, networks and communications issues. The
Handbook of Industry Studies and Economic Geography will strongly
appeal to students, scholars and researchers interested in all
aspects of industrial location and economic geography. Contributors
