Jason Knight, assistant professor of geography and planning, and three colleagues coauthored the book Shrinking Cities: Understanding Urban Decline in the United States (Routledge, August 2016). The book offers a contemporary look at patterns of shrinkage and decline in the United States. Shrinking Cities juxtaposes the complex and varied processes that contribute to these patterns with broader policy frameworks that have been under consideration to address shrinkage in U.S. cities.
