'...the book enumerates a litany of useful estimates...References, bibliography and index are excellent...for upper-division undergraduate through professional collections.' Choice 'The Lewis and Williams volume poses a lot of interesting questions...' Urban Studies 'If...you need to win an argument with the likes of Wendell Cox (notorious transit-basher), you may need this book, for it presents well-founded arguments in favor of public transport...It's also saturated with references that may provide useful sources for further investigation.'
