Recenzii

'Kefford's study is distinctive and provocative in its argument and draws on an unusually rich source-base. The Life and Death of the Shopping City is essential and rewarding reading not just for urban historians, but for historians of business, planning, consumerism and of modern Britain more generally.' Lawrence Black, University of York
'Anyone who wants to understand how the shopping city was installed in modern Britain must read Alistair Kefford's forensic study. His book is a brilliant commentary on how a politics of affluence took hold from the 1940s and its baleful consequences for many towns today.' Simon Gunn, University of Leicester
'A major contribution to the study of shopping and developmental urbanism. Kefford makes the vital link between the consumer-driven prosperity of British planning, its alliance with business, and the fantasy of shopping as urban ideal. A masterful account of the shopping city and essential reading in history and urban studies.' Rosemary Wakeman, Fordham University
