Paperback Edition of The Local and Regional Economic Development Handbook Out Now!
I’ve released the paperback edition of the Handbook – now available on Amazon (£39.99 / €49.99 / $54.99).
A few readers reviews:
“An engaging and informative read, with a good selection of case studies for bringing theory to life. Recommended for practitioners across different experience levels.”
“It’s our economic development bible.”
“If you work in economic development, this will become your go-to resource. I love the practical focus, the case studies and the relentless focus on making lives and communities better.”
“This handbook bridges the gap between theory and practice beautifully. A must-read for local government leaders, planners, and economic development professionals alike.”
“A highly engaging, carefully crafted and thoughtful work grounded in reality and the practice of placemaking.”
Listen to me talk about the book in ED podcasts
I joined David Marlow and Mike Spicer on the LED Confidential podcast recently, and we went straight at the question that opened the episode: why do so many places struggle to close the gap between what they set out to do and what actually happens on the ground? Listen here.
I spoke with Dane Carlson on the EconDevShow, a US-based podcast – about The Local and Regional Economic Development Handbook. Listen here.
