Transport Economics Bewertungen

'Mallard and Glaister provide a broad introduction to transport economics that will appeal especially to undergraduates with little prior knowledge of economics or whose knowledge would benefit from a refresher. Teachers and students alike will be pleased with the many empirical case studies that illustrate how to put the theory and concepts developed to practical use.' - Professor Erik T. Verhoef, VU University Amsterdam 'This book stands apart from its competitors by providing a thorough explanation of the established economic framework and its relevance to the transport sector and to recent policy initiatives. I would recommend it for both undergraduate and MSc level courses in transport.' Dr Corinne Mulley, Newcastle University 'This text aims to bring economic theories alive for students, elucidating traditional concepts by applying them to a real-world context'. - THES Textbook Guide
