Description:This very interesting book provides an excellent multi-disciplinary introduction into the functioning of transport systems and the interaction with their environments.'- Erik Verhoef, VU University Amsterdam, The Netherlands'The editors of this important book have clearly identified that few writings on transport treat the transport system as a whole. Implicit in this is a need for a genuinely multidisciplinary approach.

But the need for connectivity and accessibility in a spatially differentiated world has prompted the emergence of very complex transportation systems.
