'For anyone who wants to understand the changing economic role of cities, and the contribution of partnership and collaboration towards their regeneration, this book is essential reading. John McCarthy extends our understanding by comparing the evidence from England and Scotland and with a detailed exploration of the transformation of Dundee from an industrial to an entrepreneurial city.' Nick Bailey, University of Westminster, UK. 'This is an excellent analysis of modern urban regeneration processes and their outcomes. By means of in-depth local case studies McCarthy contrasts the fragmented property/industry-led and tourism/culture-led approaches to regeneration with the more the recent holistic approaches. The strength of this book is that not only does it provide an authoritative account of recent experience in Dundee; but it uses this evidence to develop insights, which make a valuable contribution to the growing body of theory on urban regeneration.' Chris Couch, Liverpool John Moores University, UK '...this book is an important contribution to the field and especially for those with a closer interest in regeneration in Dundee in particular, and Scotland and the UK in general.' Environmental and planning B: Planning and Design '...this is an excellent study of the dynamics and problems of interorganisational relations and coordination across jurisdictions and tiers of government in pursuit of urbanregeneration.'
