"Travel Behaviour" is a challenging and original volume, adding to the growing literature focusing on understanding transportation systems. The book capitalizes on actual scientific and applied developments in Europe, the importance of EC policies and the resultant trend in studying differences between North American and European research. The authors present non-traditional approaches to four pertinent topics in the field of travel behaviour: mobility and travel; telecommunication and travel; traffic congestion; and modelling travel behavioural responses.

Industry Reviews

'The book provides an insightful glimpse into the interdisciplinary research area on travel behavior. . . The many descriptions of current policy make this book particularly interesting for policymakers dealing with travel behavior in a more practical way.' -- Arianne de Blaeij, The Economic Journal
