Free Copies of a New Urban Economics Book: Unlocking the Potential of Post-Industrial Cities
I am delighted to announce that my new book Unlocking the Potential of Post-Industrial Cities has just been published. For those who have an active Twitter account, you can request a free e-book by filling out the form here. We want to encourage people to read the book and to discuss and debate the book's ideas.
In a nutshell, our book discusses economic growth and quality of life in six post-industrial cities in the United States that includes Baltimore, Cleveland, Detroit, Philly, Pittsburgh and St. Louis. These cities featured a strong economic performance when U.S manufacturing was at its peak. As these cities have de-industrialized, they have lost people and jobs and the remaining people are poorer than the national average.
The title of our book is intentional.
