Abstract
"The spatial requirements of a post-industrial society, whose most valuable commodity is information, may differ quite radically from those which we now take for granted....If the traditional patterns of desert settlement - with geographically self-contained, compact cities attuned to the carrying capacity of the land - seem to be a hopeless historical relic, it might be that technology has in fact given them, and the desert itself, new relevance."
