Roads to Prosperity by Gary Sands
Explores the relative prosperity of midsize Canadian urban areas (population 50,000 to 400,000) over the past two decades. While there appears to be no single economic development strategy that will lead to greater prosperity for every community, Sands and Reese explore the various factors that help explain why some work and others don't.
