Urbanising Britain brings together the work of some of the leading
British historical geographers of the younger generation to
consider nineteenth-century urbanization as a process, emphasizing
the dimensions of class and community. The essays in this
collection reflect the increasing use of social science concepts
within the field of historical geography, and are organized to
follow urbanization from its origins in migration, to its
consequences in urban culture and public health. The contributions
combine conceptual sophistication with original empirical research
to present a series of important and innovative statements about
the changing nature of the Victorian city, and reflect the value of
a critical theoretical perspective, hitherto absent from much work
in this area.
