Asian urbanization and development:  a comparative view.
A comparative perspective on urbanization trends in Asia is provided.  "The trends for the different Asian regions are first presented in the context of the world's more developed and less developed regions.  Comparative data on the constituent countries in each of the regions are next shown.  Then a modified urbanization-development model is proposed and subsequently tested empirically.  The concluding section summarizes the findings and implications."  The data are taken primarily from published U.N. sources.
