As one of the most challenging issues facing the transport sector,
the need for this handbook devoted to the environmental impacts of
transport is clear. It gives full treatment to all aspects of the
subject:
- environmental concepts, both physical and economic
- key environmental concerns: global warming, air quality, noise,
safety, amenity, and severance
- the role of fuel sources and new technology in reducing
environmental externalities
- the contribution of each transport sector to energy consumption
and emissions - appraisal, valuation, and impacts of
externalities
- institutional and political settings and policies
- the role of environmental legislation
- special topics such as tourism, public attitudes, and gender
Each chapter was specially commissioned from an acknowledged world
expert on the topic. Each offers an overview and useful insights to
those familiar with the area as well as those new to it. Systematic
and thorough in its creation, current and acessible in its content,
and authoritative and international in its authorship, the Handbook
of Transport and the Environment will be the definitive reference
work on this important subject.
