Critics Review
“A compelling read, that flies through a vast range of ways that urban transport affects society and its space-time dimensions. It traces changes over time in technologies and economies to show how they have shifted roles of urban transport, viewed through an interdisciplinary lens that incorporates foundational economic theory.”

“A non technical approach to transport economics, enlivened by real life case studies of transport issues. Maybe a text book in name but the topics are so interestingly presented with relevant vignettes in boxes that knowledge is gained without effort.”
Corinne Mulley, Professor Emerita, University of Sydney, Australia
