Editorial Reviews

Review

It provides a clear overview of the field and emphasizes spatial thinking with regard to transport topics, methods, and policies. Its topics and methods can easily be integrated with a variety of quantitative or qualitative methods and assignments, and will povide students with a broad but rigorous introduction to many of the topics and issues in the field of transport geography. - Journal of Regional Science, Vol 47, No 3, 2007


This book is a nice synthesis of concepts, methods, and conventional as well as contemporary issues related to transport geography... a comprehensive and valuable introduction to the field of transport geography, which we would recommend for use as a textbook for undergraduate transport students and non-transport professionals. - Journal of Transport Geography 15 (2007)


Rodrigue, Comtois and Slack have produced a valuable overview of the challenges facing contemporary transport systems suitable for practitioners in a range of related fields as well as a concise and comprehensive introduction to transport Geography for an undergraduate audience - Julie Clark, University of Glasgow (2008)
