“Bloomberg Distinguished Professor Matthew Kahn of the Johns Hopkins Carey Business School has authored two new books coming out a month apart in early 2021.
Unlocking the Potential of Post-Industrial Cities examines why some post-industrial U.S. cities such as Baltimore, Detroit, and St. Louis have been locked in socio-economic struggles for the past five decades, while other cities, including New York, Seattle, and San Francisco, have seen significant growth in their economies and populations.
The book aims to guide leaders in both the public and private sectors toward research-based solutions that might help bring greater equality and economic strength to America’s most troubled cities.”
