A Mobile Century?: Changes in Everyday Mobility in Britain in the Twentieth Century
ISBN: 9780754641810 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 270 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. For most people in the developed world, the ability to travel freely on a daily basis is almost taken for granted. Although there is a large volume of literature on contemporary mobility and associated transport problems, there are no comprehensive studies of the ways in which these trends have changed over time. This book provides a detailed empirical analysis of mobility change in Britain over the twentieth century. Beginning with an explanatory theoretical overview, setting the UK case studies within an international context, the book then analyses changes in the journey to school, the...

Mobility, Migration and Transport: Historical Perspectives
ISBN: 9783319518824 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 138 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. This book provides an innovative perspective on migration, mobility and transport. Using concepts drawn from migration history, mobilities studies and transport history it makes the case for greater integration of these disciplines. The approach is historical, demonstrating how past processes of travel and population movement have evolved, examining the continuities and changes that have occurred, and arguing that many of the concepts used in mobilities studies today are equally relevant to the past. The three central chapters view past population movements through, respectively, the lenses...

Promoting Walking and Cycling: New Perspectives on Sustainable Travel
ISBN: 9781447310082 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Why, despite the supposed desirability of cycling and walking, do so many people feel unable or unwilling to incorporate these modes of transport into their everyday journeys? This problem, one of the most pressing questions facing transport planners, has major implications for environmental policy, urban planning, and existing social and economic structures. Drawing on original research, the authors reveal the reasons behind our resistance and suggest evidence-based policy solutions that could significantly increase levels of walking and cycling. These informed perspectives will enlighten...

Everyday Mobilities in Nineteenth- And Twentieth-Century British Diaries
ISBN: 9783031126833 / Angielski / Twarda / 2022 / 239 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. This book uses diaries written by ordinary British people over the past two centuries to examine and explain the nature and extent of everyday mobilities, such as travel to school, to work, to shop or to visit friends, and to explore the meanings attached to these mobilities. After a critical evaluation of diary writing, the ways in which mobility changed over time, interacted with new forms of transport technology, and varied from place to place are examined. Further chapters focus on the roles of family and life course, gender, income and class, and journey purpose in shaping mobilities,...

Transport Policy: Learning Lessons from History
ISBN: 9781472460059 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The key aim of this volume is to demonstrate ways in which an understanding of history can be used to inform present-day transport and mobility policies. This is not to say that history repeats itself, or that every contemporary transport dilemma has an historical counterpart: rather, the contributors to this book argue that in many contexts of transport planning a better understanding of the context and consequences of past decisions and processes could lead to more effective policy decisions. Collectively the authors explore the ways in which the methods and approaches of historical...

ISBN: 9781032005843 / Angielski / Miękka / 2023 / 354 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Originally published in 1992, this book provides students with a well-illustrated, clearly written text which offers a coherent overview of Britain’s development from a pre-modern to a modern economy and society. The key processes that have shaped the geography of modern Britain are rooted in the significant demographic, economic, technological and social transitions of the early eighteenth century, the impact of which was not fully diffused through the nation until the mid-20th Century. This country-wide survey examines the nature of this transformation. The material in the...
