Through the eye of an economist Thalmann explores 200 years of the
dynamics of freight transport development in Switzerland and the
United Kingdom. With a strong underlying theme concerned with the
impact of government intervention on the efficiency of the freight
transport system, Thalmann is able to provide an insight into the
differences and similarities of the two countries who are currently
the pioneers of this industry and thus make interesting case
studies for the rest of Europe. This book provides quality data in
graphical form which is accessible to all. Contrary to other work,
Thalmann does not focus on road or rail transportation alone but on
the whole range of transport modes. At the same time the research
remains manageable with its focus on freight transportation while
most comparable books deal solely with people transportation. The
Dynamics of Freight Transport Development should be an invaluable
tool for researchers in the field of transportation and also for
the more general reader interested in the past and future of
transportation.
