this is a book that will surely be a useful reference point for both students and researchers alike. * International Affairs * This comprehensive collection hits some important academic and policy targets in very timely fashion. For those more familiar with the extant literature, this collection has enough that is new to encourage reflection. * Regional Studies * For those new to the debate over the nexus of global-urban relations, this volume is a useful introduction to a number of the key issues and concerns of this approach, although familiarity with the global city framework would contextualize some of the discussion. That alone is a welcome addition to the now massive, if often fragmented, literature on globalization and its manifold consequences. it begins to provide us with a way to think across traditionally urban and regional scales of analysis and dialogue. * Regional Studies * I strongly recommend this book.
