Handbook of Regional Economics [PDF ebook] 

Regional Economics is concerned with the spatial distribution of economic activity across geographic areas within a nation. It is a unique field within economics and provides a bounty of its own subject matter for research, application, and discourse. Regional Economics is also particularly well-suited as a complementary field, as most economic issues are at least in part regional issues.Topics in regional economics (including urban and rural) are subdivided into four areas: General), Household Demography and Labor, Production and Firm, Housing Markets, Government. This new handbook presents the latest research in the field.
