Critical Acclaim
The Handbook on Transport and Urban Planning in the Developed World edited by Michiel Bliemer, Corinne Mulley and Claudine Moutou comprehensively covers many important topics relevant to transport practice in the early twenty-first century, ranging from the fundamentals of accessibility and demographics, through traffic operations, to economics and evaluation. It has value for any budding transport analyst, engineer, or planner entering the field, and for existing practitioners who want overviews of emerging topics and cutting-edge research by leading academics.’ – David M. Levinson, University of Minnesota, US
‘We live in an urban world that is undergoing rapid change. With an international galaxy of authors, the three editors have presented the key transport and urban planning theories and practices facing cities in developed countries, arguing consistently about the importance of land use and transport, and the strong links between urban form and efficiency. The coherence of thinking and consistency of message makes this book an authoritative addition to the literature.’ – David Banister, Oxford University, UK
