5.0 out of 5 stars Transportation Engineering Textbook
New textbook in mint condition. Shipping was FAST via UPS. This seller is GOOD.

1.0 out of 5 stars Confusing Textbook
This was the textbook used in my transportation class, and I hated it. Many of the homework problems do not provide enough information, nor does the book provide enough guidance. It is true that engineering involves making assumptions and designing on your own, but this textbook was not very good in teaching you where to even begin.

This review is from: Fundamentals of Transportation Engineering: A Multimodal Systems Approach (Hardcover)
Pros:

Thorough exploration of subject matter

Lots of examples

Confusing layout (sections are indistinguishable from examples)

Buries important equations and variable definitions in the text

No color, and few pictures besides confusing diagrams

Homework problems often have arbitrary wording and don't give enough information
