Reviews

'Among the major findings were that regional government has value, economic diversity was a benefit, educational institutions can be an anchor, and a strong black middle class is beneficial. Economic development, not workforce development, is a key factor. In conclusion, regional equity needs ties to bind people together; sustained growth requires a diverse employment base; and growth and equity require inclusive leadership. This ambitious work covers new ground. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Graduate level and up.' - E. C. Erickson, California State University, Stanislaus
