- W4313444740 abstract "Sir Alan Geoffrey Wilson is no ordinary regional scientist. Some sixty years ago, he began his career as a mathematician and theoretical physicist analyzing bubble chamber events at the Rutherford Laboratory in Harwell, England. However, he soon realized that his ambition was to study and model people in cities rather than particles in gas chambers. His move to work with a transportation planning research group in Oxford in 1963 would mark the beginning of a long, productive, and impactful career in regional science. Yet, he did not entirely abandon physics: Thermodynamics ended up being a motivation and basis for many of his ideas and innovations, including his signature entropy-based spatial interaction framework. Over the years, Alan Wilson’s “sphere of interest” has remained relatively focused on cities and systems of cities, and, particularly, the modeling of spatial interaction, location activity, and urban evolution. In these areas, he has made significant theoretical and methodological contributions. He has drawn upon and impacted various disciplines and subdisciplines, including some outside the conventional walls of regional science. What is more, Sir Alan Wilson is not just a scientific giant. He has worn many badges in his lifetime: educator, administrator, philanthropist, planner, politician, businessman, and entrepreneur, and in all these roles, he has been highly successful. But, as argued by chapter author Laurie Schintler, Alan Wilson is even more than that: He is also an artist and a philosopher, making him a Renaissance man in regional science." @default.
