Britain's Cities

the long version

Britain's Cities offers a comprehensive introduction to current processes of urban restructuring, geographies of division and contemporary conditions within the city. The geography of Britain's cities is the outcome of interaction between a host of public and private economic, social and political forces operating at a variety of spatial scales from the global to the local. This book combines structural and local level perspectives to illuminate the complex geography of socio-spatial division within urban Britain. Combining conceptual and empirical analyses from leading researchers in the field with a wealth of illustrations, Britain's Cities is essential reading for all interested in the urban geography of modern Britain.
