Publisher Description: Invention and Reinvention charts San Diego's transformation from a small West Coast settlement to a military metropolis and then a successful second-tier innovation hub with a particular strength in science and technology. By identifying five distinct, recurring factors that San Diego leveraged at key tipping points in its economic growth, this book illustrates how similar regions can cultivate their future economies. |
