This study uses the experience of Cracow to illuminate general patterns of trade and urban growth in Central and Eastern Europe over several centuries. Dr. Carter describes the regions and places of special significance for Cracow's trade development, and examines the principal trading flows and commodity movements within the overall context of European economic and social change. Trade and Urban Development in Poland will make a major contribution to our understanding of the historical geography of Central and Eastern Europe.

Environmental problems and trans-boundary pollution are now of international concern. Recent political changes in Eastern Europe have revealed how extensive has been the environmental damage of four decades of socialism. This legacy is one of the region's chief obstacles in the transition to a market economy. The authors present case studies of Albania, Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Poland, Romania and Yugoslavia and describe and analyse the major causes and consequences of air, water, soil and vegetation pollution. They focus in particular on the effects on the peoples of Eastern Europe and on the environmental quality of life.
