Dr. Jean Paul from Hofstra University publishes two books:

The SAGE Handbook of Transport Studies

This book is an authoritative survey of contemporary transportation systems in view of economic, social, technical and environmental challenges. Incorporating an extensive range of approaches - from modes, terminals, planning and policy to more recent developments related to supply chain management, information systems and sustainability/ecology - the work provides a cohesive and extensive overview of the discipline. http://www.sagepub.com/books/Book234882?siteId=sage-us&prodTypes=any&q=…

The Geography of Transport Systems

This book provides a comprehensive and accessible introduction to the field, with a broad overview of its concepts, methods, and areas of application. The accompanying website for this text contains a useful additional material, including digital maps, PowerPoint slides, databases, and links to further reading and websites. The website can be accessed at: http://people.hofstra.edu/geotrans This text is an essential resource for undergraduates studying transport geography, as well as those interest in economic and urban geography, transport planning and engineering. http://www.routledge.com/books/details/9780415822541/
