In the last forty years or so the research field exploring the
relationship and interaction between transport and development has
developed rapidly. While sophistication in analysis has increased,
understanding the effective integration of transport and
development often remains poor in theory and in practice - with
sometimes devastating effects. This Handbook provides a
comprehensive analysis of both the current and emerging thinking in
this field, drawing on multidisciplinary thinking in transport
planning, transport, urban and spatial economics, and the wider
social sciences. With 45 chapters from leading international
authors, the book is organised around three main themes: - urban
structure and travel - transport and spatial impacts - wider
dimensions in transport and development. The chapters each present
commentary on key issues within these themes, presenting the debate
on the impacts of urban structure on travel, the impacts of
transport investment on development, and social and cultural change
on travel. A multitude of competing inter-disciplinary perspectives
are considered - leaving the reader with an invaluably
comprehensive and critical understanding of the field. This major
Handbook will serve as a guide for undergraduates and graduate
students, researchers, consultants, and also practitioners and
policy makers, wishing to find a comprehensive and original
reference to research on transport and development. Contributors:
