Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

Designed for a one-term sophomore through senior level course in geography, this text describes and analyzes locational patterns of various economic and urban activities, where those activities locate, and why. By combining the location/spatial interaction approach with a description of economic patterns, the text strikes a balance between the dominant theories of the last three decades. Unmatched coverage of North America, particularly the U.S., is included. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

2.0 out of 5 stars Look elsewhere, November 13, 2009
This review is from: Economic Geography (Paperback)
The first dozen chapters are a weak exposition on economics: not quantitative and obviously not by an economist. The few maps are choropleths, which any self respecting geographer would avoid.

I only picked the book up because of the chapter on Thunian systems and these three beautiful maps showing North America, Europe, and the world as perfect models.
