’The rich historical experiences and the means by which the present can learn from the past provide the source material for this diverse and engaging set of essays. It successfully captures societal concerns over disadvantage and marginalisation, the quality of everyday life, and how marketing shapes the ways in which we think about travel.’ David Banister, University of Oxford, UK ’Academics often like to argue that policy makers can learn from history. This volume not only explains how such learning can occur; it also offers concrete examples and success stories, enabling others to create truly usable histories. Moreover, the volume provides innovative social science analyses of various transport methods - including walking and bicycling - that cannot be found elsewhere.’ Richard F. Hirsh, Virginia Tech, USA
