Megalopolis: The Urbanized Northeastern Seaboard Of The United States is a comprehensive book written by Jean Gottmann that explores the phenomenon of urbanization in the northeastern region of the United States. The book delves into the history, geography, and socio-economic factors that have contributed to the growth and development of this densely populated area, which stretches from Boston to Washington D.C.Gottmann's research is based on extensive fieldwork and data analysis, and he provides a detailed account of the physical and cultural landscape of the region. The book covers topics such as the transportation network, the role of the port cities, the impact of immigration, and the changing patterns of land use.One of the key themes of the book is the idea of the megalopolis, a term coined by Gottmann to describe the interconnected network of cities and suburbs that make up the northeastern seaboard. He argues that this region represents a new type of urban form that is distinct from traditional cities and suburbs, and that it has significant implications for the future of urban planning and development.Overall, Megalopolis: The Urbanized Northeastern Seaboard Of The United States is a seminal work in the field of urban studies, and it provides a comprehensive and insightful analysis of one of the most important regions in the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
