[sustran] Re: Sustainable Transport Textbooks

If you are interested in more 'text-book' style sources, then depending on
how technical your course is, *Sustainability and Cities: Overcoming
Automobile Dependence<http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1559636602/102-0595351-3376132>
*by Newman and Kenworthy or *The Geography of Urban
Transportation<http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1593850557/102-0595351-3376132>,
*Eds. Hanson and Giuliano might be good general references. Newman &
Kenworthy is definitely oriented towards sustainability issues, whereas the
Hanson & Giuliano textbook is an excellent overview of the vast topic of
'urban transportation' - the most recent edition includes numerous
references to sustainability issues.

Have you worked out a syllabus yet? I would be interested in knowing what
you plan to cover.

Cheers,

Zvi

I have been asked to teach a course on "sustainable transport" to second
year university students.  Is anyone aware of a decent textbook in this
area?  Any suggestions would be appreciated.
