Western Europe: A systematic human geography

by Brian W. Ilbery

The first edition of this book examined the forces creating and remaking the human landscape of western Europe during the post-war era of almost continuous economic growth. The second edition is set within a more pessimistic environment of stagnation and decline; and describes such processes as counterurbanization, return migration, deindustrialization, the urban-rural manufacturing shift and other important developments that represent a reversal of many of the significant changes of the 1960s.
