This is brilliant stuff, both in its broadness of sociological scope and its voluminous collection of data from a vast number of sources in the three cities. (Scott Lash The Times Higher Education Supplement )

A very significant book indeed. . . . A systematic detailed analysis of the three largest urban economies in the advanced world. (Peter Hall International Journal of Urban and Regional Research )

[A] high-powered and at times horrific book. Sassen shows how dangerously city life has been affected by the influx of employees of the multinational firms which move into major cities and virtually colonize them, riving even greater wedges between the rich and poor. (The Observer )

A landmark study in the political economy of cities. (Anthony King Newsline )

The most detailed and sophisticated anatomy yet published of the functioning of the new producer services sector in the global economy. (Mark Levine Urban Affairs Quarterly )

The implications of Sassen's research . . . are sobering. (Rudolf Klein Times Literary Supplement )

An exciting and persuasive work. It incorporates a herculean research effort. (Susan Fainstein Journal of the American Planning Association )

A multi-disciplinary tour de force that should be read not only by regional economists but also by urban geographers, sociologists, and planners. (Development and Change ) --This text refers to the edition. Saskia Sassen is Professor of Sociology and of the Social Sciences at the University of Chicago. Her other books include Guests and Aliens, The Mobility of Labor and Capital, Losing Control, and Globalization and Its Discontents. --This text refers to the edition.
