Small Town Sustainability - Economic, Social, and Environmental Innovation

Small towns often play critical roles in regional economic systems. The authors of this volume show how small towns can meet the challenge of a globalized world, and they use case studies to introduce movements, programs, and strategies capable of effectively promoting local cultures, traditions, identities, and sustainability.
