First published in 1995, this book employs a
historical-geographical approach to illuminate the interaction
between the multifarious social and spatial forces which have
conditioned the processes and patterns of urban growth and change
over time in Scotland's principle city. The book is organised into
two complementary parts. In the first part, a chronological
approach is adopted to examine the main agents, processes and
patterns underlying the development of the city from its pre-urban
origins until the close of the nineteenth century. In the second
part, the major issues relating to the socio-spatial development of
Glasgow in the twentieth century are the subject of systematic
examination. The book uses the geographical approach to synthesise
relevant information from a plethora of sources to illuminate the
changing geography of the city in a multi-perspective format. This
volume will assist those who are interested to understand the
geography of Scotland's principle city, and is an ideal book for
students and researchers of urban studies, geography, social
science and Scottish studies. It provides a fascinating insight
into the structure of a vibrant, dynamic and often misunderstood
city.
