The book presents a comprehensive exploration of regional science, integrating spatial modeling from quantitative geography and spatial economics. It enhances each tradition by introducing probabilistic economic models and adapting geographic models to align with utility and production theories. Through detailed discussions and numerical examples, the author applies these concepts to urban models, including activity analysis, housing supply, and face-to-face interactions, as well as regional models addressing input-output analysis, imperfect competition, and interregional migration.
