Sobre este artículo
Washington, D. C: Brookings Institution Press, 1997 WYSIWYG pricing--no added shipping charge for standard shipping within USA. Inscribed by author on recto of ffep. Full black cloth, gilt titles on spine, xvi, 224 pp, 14 ff color plates, notes, index. Author's bold fountain-pen inscription has left some set-off on fpd & DJ front flap; there is also a 1 cm brown spot on ffep. DJ in Brodart archival cover. Orfield makes a case for regional government as a means of addressing the problems of declining center cities & inner-ring suburbs and rapidly-developing, but cash-strapped new suburbs, with the Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan area as his main case study, although he makes comparisons to Philadelphia, Chicago, and Portland, OR. At the time this book was written, Orfield was an adjunct professor at the University of Minnesota Law School as well as a representative for Minneapolis in the state legislature. He later served in the state senate before retiring from politics. He has continued to write on this topic, researching regional governance issues in metropolitan areas across America. Shipping weight 2 lbs.. First Edition. . Near Fine/Fine. 24 X 19½ cm.

Términos de venta
Twin City Antiquarian Books
Books are offered subject to prior sale. You may return any book within 14 days for a refund; if it was not as described, we will also refund return shipping costs (but please e-mail us first). You can place credit card orders through Biblio, or we will ship upon receipt of payment by check or money order. Sales tax is collected by Biblio and remitted directly to your state, where applicable. SHIPPING IN UNITED STATES: Books are priced postpaid, so there are no additional shipping charges for standard shipping. We will ship via Priority Mail for $12.00 per order (Save on multiple-book orders!). This may be reduced if actual postage is less than for a medium flat-rate box. INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING: In most cases, shipping via Biblio's consolidated shipping program via Asendia is the cheapest option on orders up to 5 lbs. International shipping rates are complex (cost depends upon weight and destination), so please feel free to email us for a quote before you order. If the actual cost of shipping is more than the automatically quoted rate, you must approve the additional charges before the order will be shipped. Shipping charges will be reduced if shipping weight is under 3 lbs. All shipping charges (except via Asendia) include 17% to cover Biblio fees and commissions that apply to these charges. LIBRARIES: We offer flexible terms to public and university libraries.
