Trade Review
"In his wonderful new book... Mario Polese synthesizes a wide range of ideas and research into a very interesting and highly readable account of the forces behind the uneven landscape of regional growth and change." (Economic Development Quarterly) "This clearly argued and amply illustrated work is a useful introduction to the forces causing some cities/regions to grow and others to stagnate." (Choice)"
