Unlike any other book available, this collection uses a detailed analysis of econometric results from current
transportation literature to provide an integrated collection of theory and application. Case studies are used
to illustrate the economic principles developed, while testable hypotheses and economic results are highlighted
throughout the text to provide a well-developed introduction to the foundations of transportation economics.
