'. . . this is an interesting book containing on the whole respectable well-tried approaches typical of the mid-to-late 1990s and addressing serious issues of real practical concern to human welfare, rather than being an expose of avant-garde innovations in methodology or theory. . . the contributions are well written and accessible, so that the book could profitably be used as supplementary reading by advanced students of regional economics, regional science or quantitative economic geography.
