Reviews

’With traffic demand management measures such as Road Pricing, high on the policy agenda, this book provides a major and timely contribution to analysing their important intended and unintended impacts upon social inclusion. Furthermore, the author significantly adds to the sparse literature on the ethnic dimension of both demand management and wider transport policies.’ Professor Ronald McQuaid, Napier University, UK ’...an immensely well-documented and thorough exploration of the travel constraints placed upon the participation within British society of different ethnic groups. This is an almost un-researched topic. The authors are to be congratulated on bringing to light such an important array of processes that are central to rethinking spatially the nature of contemporary citizenship.’ Professor John Urry, Lancaster University, UK ’...Raje et al have produced an elegant and timely insight on additional issues that need to be considered by politicians and transport planners if future transport policies are to reflect the needs of our increasingly diverse society.’ Local Transport Today ’... stimulating...an interesting study and a useful addition to the literatures on both urban transport management and service provision in ethnically diverse areas.’ European Spatial Research and Policy
