N2  - "The recent focus upon problems of our cities has stimulated a large and diverse body of literature to be produced in urban economics. The most important contribution to this literature are presented in this book, with an analytically unifying discussion of the main issues. This combination of readings and text makes the book sufficiently self-contained to be used as a single source for a range of courses in the academic curriculum." -- From the preface
