About this title

Review:

`The original pagination is kept on top of the present volume for ease of reference, which is most useful . . . The contents are well-chosen, international and covers most pertinent areas of transport economics and policy. It is particularly interesting to read articles from the pre-Thatcher era, saying things ignored at the time . . . This book would be a valuable addition to any reference collection with an interest in transport policy per se, particularly those which do not hold collections of the academic transport journals.' -- Place
