Book Reviews of Cities, Change, and Conflict: A Political Economy of Urban Life (with InfoTrac)
Book Review: Okay
Summary: 3 Stars
I had used this book with a course I had taken in college. It is very interesting if you are unfamilair with urban problems. If you are slightly familiar(by living in the city) it is still informative if you have a good teacher.
Summary of Cities, Change, and Conflict: A Political Economy of Urban Life (with InfoTrac)
This text discusses the importance of cities for the economic, cultural, and political life of modern societies. The author consistently uses the political economy perspective to introduce students to the basic concepts and research in urban sociology, while also acknowledging the contributions of the human ecology perspective. Through the use of case studies, the presentation remains accessible and down-to-earth.Urban & Regional Books
