Dear UTSG
My new book Inequality in Transport has been published today as a paperback (12th July) through Alexandrine Press – Price £30.00 – p. 272 and in full colour. www.inequalityintransport.org.uk
It is also available through amazon kindle https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07F2QMS6X/ price £9.99
The whole enterprise has been self publication.
Synopsis: Everyone needs transport to move around and to access everyday needs, but for each individual those needs are different, and they change over time and space: herein lie the seeds of inequalities in transport. In Inequality in Transport, David Banister addresses this complex problem, first through an exploration of inequality, its nature, measurement and extent. He then links inequality and the transport sector through detailed analysis of the variations in daily and long-distance travel in Great Britain over a ten-year period. He argues that there must be a much wider interpretation of inequality – one that links actual travel with measures of wellbeing and sustainability, recognizing that these will change over time. In drawing his findings together, he concludes that there must be new thinking in transport policy and planning if transport inequalities are to be alleviated.
Would it be possible for you to circulate the details of my book on the extensive networks that you may have, and possibly even to buy a copy?
