'Economic geography strikes back. After a couple of decades of easy talk about the 'death of distance' in the age of globalization, the promise of a future of rising living standards for all is increasingly challenged by the resilience of geographical disparities. By introducing students and scholars to the frontier of urban and geographical economics, this new edition equips them with the theoretical and empirical tools needed to make sense of our spiky world.' Gianmarco Ottaviano, Bocconi University and the London School of Economics and Political Science This book is not merely a new 'New introduction to geographical economics' but a deeply revised version of the excellent previous material. Brakman, Garretsen, and van Marrewijk paint a sweeping portrait of geographical and urban economics, taking into consideration the shift in focus in the field towards cities and empirical methods. This timely, comprehensive, and highly readable book will be an excellent source for students and researchers in the years to come.' Kristian Behrens, Universite du Quebec a Montreal '... this book provides the most systematic and comprehensive analysis possible in the field of urban and regional economics ... The in-depth theoretical and empirical analysis offered makes the book a 'must' read for anyone who intends to teach and/or do quality research in issues of regional and urban disparities.' Ioannis Bournakis, Regional StudiesMore details

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
This eBook uses Adobe-DRM, a „hard” copy protection. If the necessary requirements are not met, unfortunately you will not be able to open the eBook. You will therefore need to prepare your reading hardware before downloading.
