About the Book

The relationship between the technological revolution and the simultaneous process of worldwide urban-regional restructuring is examined in this book. Two overview chapters by Manuel Castells and Peter Hall summarize current research in the United States and Great Britain. Additional chapters examine locational patterns and regional effects of high-tech manufacturing; the impact of technological change on service industries and metropolitan economies; and the social, spatial, and political effects of new communications technologies.
