The chapter makes an argument that mathematical urban models should be joined with urban social theory. The two were separated historically was not because of any philosophical incommensurable difference but a result of internal sociological factors within the discipline of geography during the early 1970s. A model for integrating mathematical and social theoretical urban approaches is offered that draws on the work of the historian and philosopher of science, Peter Galison, and his idea of a trading zone.
