Reviews
"Urban Logistics will give a competitive edge. It is rooted in the real-world experiences of leaders at the top of their game, sharing lessons learned from some of the most complex cities around the world." * Stacey D Hodge, former Director, Office of Freight Mobility, New York City Department of Transportation, USA *
"'This book provides a powerful and topical set of authoritative chapters that address the rapidly changing scene of urban logistics, covering complexity, heterogeneity, innovation in delivery systems and technological advances. It provides a welcome addition to the international research in this growing area of transport and, as such, will be of interest to those involved in management, policy and innovation.'" * David Banister, Emeritus Professor of Transport Studies and Senior Research Fellow, University of Oxford, UK *
"Management and regulation of urban freight transport is becoming increasingly important for operators, customers and policymakers. In spite of the importance of the subject, there is still a dearth of research, analysis and evaluations. This book will be useful for policymakers and for anyone needing to get a broad overview of this crucial and fast-moving field.'" * Jonas Eliasson, Director, Stockholm City Transportation Administration, Sweden *
