Reviews
"Transportation Economics is an exceptionally well-done book which includes all the major points of interest in transportation economics and then some. McCarthy combines economic theory with econometric methods in a case-study approach and, in so doing, provides a comprehensive view of the entire field. The 'chapter highlights' are an excellent review of the ideas and topics presented. This is an excellent book for the upper-level undergraduate student and graduate student." Peter D. Loeb, Rutgers University. "This is a rigorous text providing a comprehensive coverage for both the student and the specialist in transportation economics. It is strongly recommended." Dr. Saad Yousif, Salford University.
