There really isn't one book that does it all, but I do recommend the
one
by Vasconcellos: Vasconcellos, Eduardo A. (2001). Urban Transport,
Environment, and Equity, the Case for Developing Countries. London:
Earthscan.

It is one of the only works by a developing country native and it
covers
many of the key issues --Jonathan

SUSTRAN-DISCUSS is a forum devoted to discussion of people-centred,
equitable and sustainable transport with a focus on developing countries
(the 'Global South'). Because of the history of the list, the main focus
is on urban transport policy in Asia.
