Thorough and authoritative, Regional and Urban Economics and
Economic Development: Theory and Methods provides students with a
sound approach to analyzing the economic progress of a region or
urban area. The textbook is divided into four sections for ease of
reference. The first section, Market Areas and Firm Location
Analysis introduces spatial economics and location theory, while
the next section, Regional Growth and Development analyzes regional
growth and development models and policy. Introducing the
foundations of urban economics, Urban Land Use and Urban Form
examines land rent, land use patterns, and the effects of attempts
to control land uses. The final section, Urban Problems and Policy,
investigates local public finance and introduces the policy
analysis involved in countering urban problems. Addressing these
topics from the perspectives of how they affect the population at
large and how they become established within public policy,
Regional and Urban Economics and Economic Development: Theory and
Methods provides students with an essential foundation not only to
understand but also to contemplate the dynamics of varying economic
factors as they relate to an area's growth.
