This is an interesting book but its title is misleading. The author states that his field of interest is the night time economy (NTE) in British cities. This is untrue. His interest is the NTE in ‘English’ cities. Scots and Welsh cities are not considered anywhere here. This is unfortunate, particularly as regards Scotland and its unique licensing system, which could usefully have been used as a comparator.
