Download or read book Mobility First written by Sam Staley and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2009 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traffic congestion is a growing problem and unless policy makers and transportation officials make some dramatic changes, it will rise to unacceptable levels by 2030. In, Sam Staley and Adrian Moore explain the inefficient systems and politics that cause this escalating epidemic, presenting commonsense, high-tech solutions that will ease congestion and its troubling consequences. The book considers transportation policy through the intersection of four crucial and timely elements: global, economic, and cultural competitiveness; urban development trends; demographics; and transportation engineering and design. It sets goals for congestion reduction, outlines performance standards that increase transparency, calls for the redesign of the regional transportation network, and describes sufficient investment in technology.

Book Synopsis A New Vision for Housing by : Christopher Holmes
Download or read book A New Vision for Housing written by Christopher Holmes and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-03-20 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1945 the Labour Government set out to enable everyone to have a decent home, where people from all walks of life could live together. This dream was destroyed by a succession of avoidable mistakes and almost everyone now seems to believe that it is impossible to rediscover that vision. This book challenges that fatalism, tracing the policy mistakes that have given rise to this inequitable state from the folly of mass housing to the unfair tax privileges of many home owners. Holmes describes and advocates a new vision for the new millennium, finding solutions variously in development, planning, economic structures, social reform, and political reassessment to narrow the gap between rich and poor and enable people in all housing tenures to finally have a choice.

The concept of Transition Management and how it can be applied to the transport sector is considered in detail, and forms the focus of the first part of the volume.

Book Synopsis 14-18 - A New Vision for Secondary Education by : Kenneth Baker
Download or read book 14-18 - A New Vision for Secondary Education written by Kenneth Baker and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2013-01-24 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Former Secretary of State for Education Kenneth Baker claims that secondary education has become a five-year programme with a single, narrow aim: to prepare pupils for high-stakes GCSE exams at 16. From 2015, all young people will be legally required to stay in education or training until they are 18. Kenneth Baker sees this as a historic opportunity to re-think the aims and structure of English education. He argues that the National Curriculum should extend only to the age of 14 and that there should be four distinct pathways from 14-18 to take account of young people's emerging interests talents and ambitions: Liberal Arts; Technical; Sports and Creative Arts; and Career. All pathways will provide a broad education, but each will have a distinctive character matched to the talents and ambitions of individual students. In 14-18 - A New Vision for Secondary Education, Kenneth Baker builds a compelling case for reform, with contributions from a range of educationalists who draw on the history of English education, practice elsewhere in the world, and their experiences. An essential read for anyone interested in the future of secondary education.
Book Synopsis Keywords of Mobility by : Noel B. Salazar
Download or read book Keywords of Mobility written by Noel B. Salazar and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2016-06-01 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scholars from various disciplines have used key concepts to grasp mobilities, but as of yet, a working vocabulary of these has not been fully developed. Given this context and inspired in part by Raymond Williams’ Keywords (1976), this edited volume presents contributions that critically analyze mobility-related keywords: capital, cosmopolitanism, freedom, gender, immobility, infrastructure, motility, and regime. Each chapter provides an historical context, a critical analysis of how the keyword has been used in relation to mobility, and a conclusion that proposes future usage or research.
