Caves, Roger W.

SUMMARY

"It is no easy matter to make a good selection of readings on exploring urban America, but Roger W. Caves does it excellently in a substantial collection published by Sage. . . . The collection is intended as an introductory reader, but it could also well serve as a main text in U.S. urban studies." --Barry Cullingworth Review An outstanding new introductory text, Exploring Urban America presents a collection of seminal articles gathered from top urban studies journals. This carefully edited and accessible collection of articles introduces undergraduate students to the interdisciplinary field of urban studies and urban affairs. As such, it investigates a variety of areas, including cities and urbanism, urban history, urban policy, economic development, community development, community services and infrastructure, housing, urban education, and growth. Each section of this reader begins with an introduction by a leading figure in the field. This text is skillfully synthesized and provides an accessible format that will serve well as an introductory reader/text for students of urban studies, political science, and public administration.Caves, Roger W. is the author of 'Exploring Urban America An Introductory Reader' with ISBN 9780803956384 and ISBN 080395638X.
