"Written by recognized authorities, this important new textbook
presents a stimulating overview of the complex forces responsible
for industrial location. While students of geography, business, and
planning will benefit from this meticulous account, it deserves a
wider audience. Business leaders or their advisers, and policy
makers are also strongly recommended to read this book."
