Synopsis Industrial Location by : James W. Harrington
Location is vital to the efficiency and profitability of industrial activity. Industrial Location presents a comprehensive introduction to and critical review of this field of growing academic and business interest. In business, the right choices have to be made to produce profit. Industrial location is a fixed investment, crucial to the strategy and capital investment of any organization. Location also impacts upon non-investors, directly affecting employment, the environment, and economic activity in the locale. Focusing chiefly on the United States, but drawing on an international range of cases, the authors explain the economic, social and political forces which have shaped comtemporary patterns of industrialization and examines the changing nature of production and systems.

Synopsis Industrial Location by : Michael J. Webber
Webber tackles a fundamental topic, the strategy and pattern behind the location of industrial production. He uses examples from the aircraft parts industry, the industrial decline in the UK, and the location pattern of manufacturing within cities. They suggest that as transport costs have fallen, the main location factors have become labour and agglomeration, themselves dependent upon general economic, political, and social systems.

Synopsis Economics of Agglomeration by : Masahisa Fujita
This book provides the first unifying treatment of the range of economic reasons for the clustering of firms and households. Its goal is to explain further the trade-off between various forms of increasing returns and different types of mobility costs. Although referring to agglomeration as a generic term is convenient, it should be noted that the concept of economic agglomeration refers to distinct real world situations. The main focus of the treatment is on cities, but it also explores the formation of agglomerations, such as commercial districts within cities, industrial clusters at the regional level, and the existence of imbalance between regions. The book is rooted within the realm of modern economics and borrows concepts from geography and regional science, which makes it accessible to a broad audience formed by economists, geographers, regional planners, and other scientists. It may be used in coursework for graduate students and upper-level undergraduates.

Synopsis Industrial Location and Community Development by : Barry M. Moriarty
This study describes and explains the concepts, materials, and methods designed to make community industrial development programs more effective. It attempts to reconcile the three different--and often conflicting--interest groups involved: the industrial land user, represented by the manufacturer seraching for a location; the landowner, represented by the industrial or economic developer; and the community, represented by the planner and other government officials.

Synopsis Industrial Location and National Resources by : United States. National Resources Planning Board
"After the war both private industry and governmental agencies will be faced with serious problems of minimizing the maladjustments resulting from wartime industrial expansion. A particular responsibility will rest on the federal government in the disposal of its huge investment in war plants and in promoting the conversion or adaptation of many of these war plants to peacetime uses. The present report will ... be of material assistance to the agencies of government concerned with these problems and likewise to private business in its task of readjustment and conversion of industrial operations to peacetime uses"--P. iv.

Synopsis Industrial Location and Planning in the United Kingdom by : David Keeble
First published in 1976, Industrial Location and Planning in the United Kingdom investigates in detail the nature of the changes taking place in the location of manufacturing industry since the 1950s and the reasons for them, including the effects of government regional policy and of factors such as market accessibility, labour availability and cost, transport facilities and personal residential preferences by industrialists and workers. The book brings together a wide range of published and unpublished material in discussing and evaluating explanations for regional and local manufacturing growth or decline. Government regional policy and planning is singled out for special attention, in terms of the impact of Development Area grants, of local planning controls, and of the town programmes. Manufacturing movement to new locations and the implications of government regional policies for industrial efficiency are examined in detail, together with the reasons for locational change in key but controversial industries such as steel, motor vehicles and electronics. This book will be of interest to students of urban planning, manufacturing, and development as well as city planners.
