Compiled by Matthew Edel and Jerome Rothenberg, this landmark anthology gathers the most influential academic writings of its era, chronicling the economic dimensions of urbanisation — from housing markets and land use to poverty, transportation, and metropolitan fiscal policy. The collection serves as an authoritative guide for understanding why cities grow, struggle, and transform, drawing on contributions from some of the foremost economists of the twentieth century.\n\nThe work stands as a cornerstone text in the field of urban economics, illustrating the discipline's evolution from a niche sub-field into a central concern of public policy and social science. Edel and Rothenberg's editorial framework argues that urban problems are not merely local inconveniences but symptoms of deeper structural economic inequalities — a provocative thesis that gives the anthology its intellectual urgency. Whether you are a student, scholar, or engaged citizen, this collection poses questions about the economics of the city that remain as pressing and unresolved today as when they were first written.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49203186467035,"sku":"2026200014966-SECONDHAND","price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/b60f2cbb-d086-4ea7-a7c9-70517f6aaa8d.png?v=1788145217","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200014966-secondhand-readings-in-urban-economics","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
