About this product

Product Information

Arthur O' Sullivan' s Urban Economics is the leading text for this small, but exciting market. This book covers urban economics as the discipline that lies at the intersection of geography and economics. The sixth edition is a thorough revision of previous incarnations-- the author has reorganized and rewritten every chapter to produce a sleek and up-to-date text that will bring renewed attention to the Urban Economics course. This sixth edition offers an extreme makeover from previous editions while also incorporating the remarkable progress in the field of urban economics in the last ten to fifteen years. Part I of the book explains why cities exist and what causes them to grow or shrink. Part II examines the market forces that shape cities and the role of government in determining land-use patterns. Part III looks at the urban transportation system, exploring the pricing and design of public transit systems and the externalities associated with automobile use (congestion, environmental damage, collisions). Part IV uses a model of the rational criminal to explore the causes of urban crime and the spatial consequences. Part V explains the unique features of the housing market and examines the effects of government housing policies. The final part of the book explains the rationale for our fragmented system of local government and explores the responses of local governments to intergovernmental grants and the responses of taxpayers to local taxes. All of the economic concepts used in the book are covered in the typical intermediate microeconomics course, but a Tools of Microeconomics appendix is included that covers the key concepts for students whose exposure tomicroeconomics is limited to an introductory course or who could benefit from a review of intermediate concepts.

  • If you like pretty pictures, you're out of luck . . .

    I got this older edition of Urban Economics, and so far that hasn't caused me any problems. The information is fairly readable for anyone who's had a course in economics before. There aren't any pictures other than graphs and tables, and it's all in black and white. It's small and therefore easy to carry around, but I suggest taking notes or using a highlighter extensively, as it doesn't do a very good job of emphasizing new terms or concepts.

  • stinky book

    I was very impressed with the price of the book and the speed with which it was delivered. I dont know what happened to my book but when I opened the pages they stunk. Not like sewer stunk but the pages and book smelled like old nasty mildew and mold. I had to let the book air out for a few days before the smell died down enough to take it to class. Before you send anybody else a book make sure it does not smell. Maybe it is where you are storing them. The only reason I give the rating a below average is that it smelled bad. The speed and price once again were great but they need to smell better.

  • Good book

    This book is great for explaing the urban economy. It does have a few typo's in it, but what book doesn't? It is an amazing book for helping students learn urban econ.

  • Great product

    exactly what i needed for the class. Good questions and examples from a problems stand point. Its a small book, but has a lot of good information about the topics covered.
