'Voices from the North is a fresh, stimulating wind from the North. Combining pieces in keeping with a long tradition of applied research and work informed by a variety of poststructual and feminist theories, this anthology splendidly displays - yet again - that the cutting edge of human geography is not a monopoly of British and North American scholars. For many of the voices in question are not merely well-informed, but original in important ways.' Professor Allan Pred, University of California, Berkeley, USA '...an excellent reflection of a characterisitc of research in the Nordic countries: its strong integration with international research...The book gives a good overview of the diversity of the discipline in the Nordic countries as well as a couple of very interesting contributions to the interdisciplinary research field of clusters, innovation systems, and firms' and regions' responses to globalization.' Journal of Regional Science '...it helps us understand how useful it can be to think about our own speciality fields in relation to the wider contexts in which they are located or against which they are formed.'
