Megaregions: Planning for Global Competitiveness, edited by Dr. Catherine L. Ross, was reviewed by Aaron Renn, an urban success strategist focusing on the overlooked cities of the Midwest. Renn applauds the concept of megaregions as a "convenient abstraction for federal level thinkers to make sense out of the large number of diverse metro areas in America" while noting that "megaregions are necessary purely as a level of hierarchy, even if they prove to be a phantom level."
