Rezensionen

"Small town research at the world scale has been deficient in academic contributions to urban studies topics and particularly short on efforts by geographers. This book addresses both lacunae. The editor's novel approach is complemented by each contributor's effort to clarify unique situations considered at the world level. Every continent is represented. There is no question that small towns promote the geo-economics of the relevant major urban settings, thus contributing to the particular country's development. Maps and photographs support the essays, and rich international bibliographic entries provide exposure not readily available in the English literature."
