4.0 out of 5 stars Great Introduction to the US Transportation System, August 18, 2000
By 
Julie Kuehl (Moorhead, MN USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Contemporary Transportation (Hardcover)
I use this book as a text in a university course. It gives a broad-brush approach to introducing the field of transportation and the various modes (planes, trains, trucks, boats). It looks at the field from both a user's and a provider's perspective and has great "real-world" examples and problems. It needs a little updating, especially regarding the regulatory environment which has changed significantly since this edition was published. I chose this book over 3 or 4 others because it is very readable and not too technical. A good introductory text.
