Reviews
For the last half century, Sweden has been a global epicentre for stirring up innovation waves in human geography. For any one who wants to understand the deep roots of the 'Swedish phenomenon', this thoughtful book by Buttimer and Mels - with unique contributions by the late Torsten Hgerstrand - is a must.
