Reviews

This is one of the first scholarly historical studies to focus so clearly on the limits of regulation. [It] has a well defined focus, and the key primary sources have been examined thoroughly and used effectively. Deregulation has become an important agenda item for Tory politicians. This work is of great importance in [its questioning of the current mixed system of regulation]. T.D. Regehr, Department of History, University of Saskatchewan. A very comprehensive analysis ... demonstrating substantial scholarship. The historic perspective gives a new dimension to railway regulation ... The sources, primary and secondary, are as complete as I have ever seen ... [and] the detailed consideration of Regulatory Pluralism is a new concept. W.G. Scott, Department of Continuing Education (Transportation Economics), McGill University.
