'With all the excitement in the field of transport surrounding issues like electric propulsion, shared mobility and self-driving vehicles, the way forward to sustainable transport still depends on our ability to integrate the various modes of transport into one efficient and secure transport system. This book and the four expert editors are the much needed voice of advocacy for this, almost forgotten, subject. The book is an important education tool for understanding multimodality and for thinking 'multimodal'.--Moshe Givoni, Tel Aviv University, Israel'Transport - of both people and goods - is a necessary condition for an open and interconnected world. The achievement of efficient transport systems calls for interlinked transport modes that are smart and effective, based on a systemic perspective. To avoid fragile transport operations, transport systems need to be robust with a high level of security, so that transport vulnerability can be avoided, especially in intermodal transport connections. This is a timely publication on a worldwide concern in the modern transport field, highlighting the importance of secure intermodal transport systems. It offers both conceptual and applied research perspectives on currently prevailing issues and challenges in this field, supported by various relevant case studies. The topics addressed are of critical importance for both the research community and transport operators, as well as for policy making agencies.'--Peter Nijkamp, VU University, Amsterdam, the Netherlands
