"Traces the Internet industry from its beginnings … the
best picture yet of the Internet boom of the 1990s, its decline in
2000 and 2001, and its stability and slower growth since.”
Edward J. Malecki, The Ohio State University
“An authoritative and engaging account of contemporary
urban-regional economic development in the information age, that
has real explanatory power much like Jean Gottmann’s
Megalopolis had in the 1960s. The Geography of the
Internet Industry deserves a place on the reading lists of
anyone serious about understanding the recent past of the
Internet.” Martin Dodge, University College
London
“I urge everyone who has a chance to read this book
because it is fluent and well constructed, especially given that it
is based on a thesis. Unlike most theses, the joins do not show,
and this makes for an exciting journey through its
pages.”
Michael Batty
