Urban change in a post-industrial world / Prepared by Peter Hall and Larry S. Bourne for: The Centre for Future Studies in Housing and Living Environments. : NH17-215/1991E-PDF

Cities evolved dynamically, influenced by a range of forces - initially the compelling agglomeration tendencies of industrialization and later by the incredible power of the automobile, which without a doubt has been the major factor creating the urban form of North America in the latter half of the twentieth century"--Preface, p. ii.
