Australian Cities

This work examines the changing nature of Australia's major cities from a geographical perspective. It explains how patterns of housing, population, employment, transport and service provision developed and continue to evolve in response to economic, social and technological change. It discusses issues of equity, ecological sustainability and efficiency and considers the choices facing policy makers. This expanded second edition contains a completely new chapter on environmentally sustainable urban development, and new sections on inner city revitalization and the impact of globalization on Australian cities.
