The book explores key concepts in spatial economics, emphasizing plant location, market area theories, and spatial competition. It delves into land use, specialization, trade, and transportation network layouts, utilizing Beckmann's continuous flow model as a focal point. The text prioritizes structural stability over optimality and introduces necessary mathematical tools in an intuitive manner, enhanced by rich computer graphics. The new edition expands on spatial competition and oligopoly theory, particularly addressing Hotelling's case with elastic demand to clarify previous paradoxes.
