'An indispensable resource for scholars and practitioners around the world.' - Roger Keil, Professor and Director, The City Institute at York University
'This impressive compilation marks a milestone in the international cooperation of researchers on cities in globalization. It will be an indispensable resource for scholars and practitioners around the world.' - Roger Keil, Professor and Director, The City Institute at York University
'The culmination of two decades of work developing a new methodology and building the largest available data set on cities in a global world. This is an extraordinary advance for the now urgent need to measure the diverse and variable connections among cities across borders and time-zones.'- Saskia Sassen, author of The Global City and Professor, Columbia University
'Intensified business connections among cities form one of the key expressions of contemporary globalization; their nature and geography are constantly changing. Global Urban Analysis provides the most comprehensive investigation of such connections that has ever been undertaken. Based on a sophisticated theorization of the global urban system, well-crafted methodological tools and an awesome trove of empirical data, this book is a truly path-breaking analysis of globalized urbanization. This is an essential resource for all who are concerned to understand and to influence the changing shape of our hyperurbanized world.'- Neil Brenner, Professor of Sociology and Metropolitan Studies, New York University
'For the first time we can evaluate cities in our own country while seeing how they relate to the rest of the global economy. This is a breathtaking achievement.' - Fan Gang, Economist and Vice Chairman of the China Reform Foundation (NERI-China), Beijing, China
'I can recommend Global Urban Analysis as a benchmark volume for planners and others who study the changing world and its major cities.' - Edward J. Malecki, Journal of Planning and Education and Research
