The three parts of the book are: European Mobility Patterns;  Dimensions of European Mobility, and National Perspectives.

However, there are side  dissimilarities within Europe. The authors take a deep look at the  underlying factors which affect travel behavior, with the objective of  providing the necessary information for policy making. The comparative  chapters of Part II provide an analysis based on national perspectives  of the role of the time dimension travel; automobile ownership and  use; commuting; public transport; and international travel. They also  review the transport policies applied in Europe, explaining why some  policies work in some places, while failing in others. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1993-07-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792322979\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-015-8118-9\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 461\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46312088666252,"sku":"9780792322979","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792322979.jpg?v=1771518015","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9780792322979","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
