"These studies provide the reader withan insightful understanding of the federal policies and diverse market forces which havesignificantly affected development patterns in these cities....In addition to descriptivefindings, Sunbelt/Frostbelt also proposesrecommendations to policymakers and corporate stakeholders that would result in a morebalanced growth in thier respective cities and regions. A work of impressive and originalscholarship throughout..." -Michael J. Carson, The Midwest BookReview, "This is a fine introduction to five urban areas. Furthermore, its methodology could serve a guide to the study of many other US cities. Even those familiar with a particular area studied in this book are likely to come away with helpful nuggets of fact and assessment." —Linda Dobkins Harris, Emory and Henry College, Growth and Change: A Journal of Urban and Regional Planning , 12/1/2006, "This is a fine introduction to fiveurban areas.

Synopsis
Metropolitan growth and development results from a complex mix of factors. Consumer preferences, growth and geographical shifts in population, increasing incomes, market restructuring, quality of schools, and location of affordable housing are just a few that play a critical role. Other important influences include state and local interactions, historical circumstances, and the natural topography of a metropolitan area. Federal and state policies, taken together, set the ""rules of the development game"" that tend to facilitate economic decentralization, the concentration of poverty, and greater fiscal and racial disparities between communities. In S unbelt/Frostbelt, Janet Rothenberg Pack and her contributors examine the role of market forces and government policies in shaping growth and development patterns in major metropolitan areas. The findings are a result of a multiyear project analyzing five different locales: two sunbelt metro areas (Los Angeles and Phoenix) and three in northern climes (Pittsburgh, Chicago, and Philadelphia). Through its intensive study of these areas, the book offers a deep understanding of the federal policies and diverse market forces that have affected urban development patterns in the last few decades. Despite the diversity of the cities, the contributors find remarkable similarities in the problems they face. Urban sprawl and spatial inequality are among the common challenges attributable to market forces and public policies. Despite the many similarities, the book finds important differences in the extent of the problems and recommends numerous policies for remedying them. It concludes by examining how these different sunbelt and frostbelt metro areas have attempted to adopt policy reforms that address their unique growth challenges. Contributors include a team of researchers from Arizona State University, Peter Dreier (Occidental College), Robert E. Gleeson (Northern Illinois University), Joseph Gyourko (Univers, Janet Rothenberg Pack and her contributors examine the role of market forces and government policies in shaping growth and development patterns in major metropolitan areas., " Metropolitan growth and development results from a complex mix of factors.

- _***a (24)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaItem was shipped quickly, and was securely packaged. Items was in at least as good a condition as described; it may actually be in better condition than described, as the book looks almost new and unread. Given the great condition of the book, the price was an exceptional value. Furthermore, I made contact with the seller with a query; and, they got back to me very quickly, and were able to answer all my questions. Overall, a great transaction. I would buy from this seller again. Thanks!
- l***i (231)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaThe book arrived as described and as pictured. It shipped quickly, but was shipped in only a plastic bag mailer, so not much protection. I will also forewarn, the seller does not answer questions about the specific condition of a book. I know because I asked if two different books had any writing in the margins and received the same pre-generated response both times declining to answer. Despite this, I would still recommend this seller if you are willing to shoulder that risk buying used books
- i**** (3653)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaQuick ship and excellent communication. As described in listing. Hardback book a good value for the money. It was packaged in a very thin plastic covering with no padding. The book was fine and not damaged. Delivered on time. I ordered from this seller over the last couple of years. I like to read Beatrice Small's books. A+
