Book Synopsis Atlantic Metropolis by : Aaron Gurwitz

Download or read book Atlantic Metropolis written by Aaron Gurwitz and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-06-13 with total page 754 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book applies the contents of a working economist’s tool-kit to explain, clearly and intuitively, when and why over the course of four centuries individuals, families, and enterprises decided to locate in or around the lower Hudson River Valley. Collectively those millions of decisions have made New York one of the twenty-first century’s few truly global cities. A recurrent analytic theme of this work is that the ups and downs of New York’s trajectory are best understood in the context of what was happening elsewhere in the broader Atlantic world. Readers will find that the Atlantic perspective viewed through an economic lens goes a long way toward clarifying otherwise quite perplexing historical events and trends.
