Description:

For junior/senior-level courses in Urban Economics and Regional Economics and graduate-level courses Urban and Regional Planning and public policy. Designed to convey the excitement of studying cities while developing a set of formal tools for analyzing their economies. Attempts to remove the division between urban economics and regional economics by demonstrating that the traditional intermetropolitan models of specialization and trade can also be extended to intrametropolitan analysis, thus unifying their treatment.
