Employment Location in Cities and Regions Models and Applications

From the book reviews:

“This book constitutes a highly welcome addition to the literature concerned with the modeling of the spatial distribution of employment. … The volume also stands out in the ways in which the various chapters combine detailed descriptions of particular models with their applications to specific cities or regions, thus making the book an interesting read for those with a focus on the design of comprehensive employment location models as well as those rather concerned with their applications in different contexts.” (Kristin Kronenberg, Journal of Regional Science, Vol. 54 (2), March, 2014)
