| Publisher Description: The Rise and Fall of Great Urban Economies closely examines the divergent economic paths of San Francisco and Los Angeles in order to explain how regions copes with new opportunities and unfavorable shocks. By honing in on micro-level trends in these two cities, the authors make a significant contribution to the dialogue surrounding metropolitan development, urban and regional policy, and comparative economic development more broadly. |
