Handbook on Transport and Development (Paperback): Robin Hickman, Moshe Givoni, David Bonilla, David Banister Handbook on Transport and Development (Paperback)

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.

This book addresses the challenges of planning sustainable freight transport systems (road and air) in a time when the industry faces increasing pressure from environmental limits, climate change, carbon emission targets, bottlenecks in oil supply, infrastructure shortages and urban congestion. The author examines sustainable freight transport over the last 45 years on three continents, and includes developments on transport economics, logistics and transport geography as well as environmental economics. Readers will gain valuable insight on a number of practices and methodologies that will assist in making their systems more sustainable with fewer negative environmental effects at both the local and global level.

In minutes, Dylan's world has changed. His teacher holds a gun to his head. A girl he digs throws him across the room like a rag doll. A classmate shot, but there is no hole. He is no longer just a student in a dilapidated high school in the harsh dictatorship of Renatus. Dylan is now being hunted by his own government for what makes him so special, he is 'infected'. 'Infected', a term coined by the government to scare its citizens into turning anyone with symptoms. What the people don't know is that the 'infected' can possess abilities such as faster reflexes or being able to zap people with electricity. The more abilities are used, the faster you go insane... or your head implodes from the inside. The reach and greed of Renatus is endless, and their motives are hidden by propaganda and manipulation. Forced to flee with his friends to escape the grip of the government, the truth about Dylan's missing father is revealed along with the secret behind the 77 year long tyranny of Renatus. Not everyone makes it to safety, however, as friends and families are captured during their escape attempt. They are being held hostage; destined to be part of twisted experiments to extract data on those who are infected. SKY OF DUST: THE LAST WEAPON is young adult novel with a blend of romance, action, adventure, and science fiction.
