This text consists of 24 original chapters developed by a network of transport professionals in a co-ordinated manner. The three parts of the book are: European Mobility Patterns; Dimensions of European Mobility, and National Perspectives. Mobility in 14 countries is described and ten chapters of analysis compare the major dimensions of travel across Europe, which is seen as a laboratory for transport policies. It questions the uniqueness of European travel and transport policies and demonstrates that, in many ways, Europe is different from other developed economies. However, there are wide dissimilarities within Europe. The authors take a deep look at the underlying factors which affect travel behavior, with the objective of providing the necessary information for policy making. The comparative chapters of Part 11 provide an analysis based on national perspectives of the role of the time dimension travel; automobile ownership and use, commuting: public transport: and inter-national travel. They also review the transport policies applied in Europe, explaining why some policies work in some places, while failing in others.
