Book excerpt: The second edition of Urban America, like the first edition, is distinguished by its emphasis on the spatial relationships within and between cities. This emphasis a study of the geographical patterns of residential, commercial, political, and cultural development, allows a balanced, flexible examination of the varied aspects of urban life. It permits a comprehensive look at the social, economic, political, and cultural history of the city. At the same time, this edition minimizes its review of spatial theory; many students and instructors told us the theoretical material tended to encumber rather than enlighten. -- Preface.

The 92 articles collected in these two volumes describe and analyze the transformation of the United States from a simple agrarian and small-town society to a complex urban and suburbannation. The Encyclopedia attempts to comprehend the American city within the changing questions of what makes American cities distinctive: Why do American cities look the way that they do? What characterizes the social and built environments of American cities? And how have Americans created and adapted to thoseenvironments over time?
