Description
The Retail Environment (1990) takes a fresh look at the American retailing system. It describes and explains retailing, with a particular emphasis on the problem of store location, and combines a spatial approach to consumer demand with a corporate and institutional view of supply. Linking the theoretical and applied traditions of location analysis, it uses a wealth of real-life examples to illustrate its theoretical points.
