'This is vintage Allen Scott, but also a tour d'horizon of the state of urban studies, 2012, by one of its foremost global practitioners: compulsory reading.' - Peter Hall, University College London, UK 'In this book, Allen Scott enriches his longstanding research into the ways in which city-regions function as the main economic engines of global capitalism. the end result is a seminal synthesis of how city-regions are increasingly enchained with one another in intensifying relations of competition and cooperation, and is a must-read for students and scholars alike.' - Ben Derudder, Monash University, Australia and Ghent University, Belgium
