Very good. NICE BOOK! SECOND EDITION. MILD WEAR ON COVER, LIGHTLY AGED PAGES, NO MARKS IN TEXT.

The authors discuss the economic history of U.S. urbanization and regional shifts, and then go on to examine basic theoretical models, including the open-city model, against real-world urban environments. The text concludes by critically evaluating urban problems and the public sector, including discussions of the housing market, transportation, local government, pollution and environmental quality, and urbanization in developing countries.
