Definition

  • One of geography's most well-known and productive scholars, Brian Berry has played an enormously influential role in urban and economic geography, primarily as the steadfast defender of traditional quantitative modeling. Born in 1934 to working-class parents in England, Berry defied the confines of the British class system to rise to the topmost tiers of academia.
