Book Reviews of Modelling Transport
Book Review: 5 Stars for breadth, 4 for depth
Summary: 4 Stars
In Modelling Transport, Ortuzar and Willumsen touch on a multitude of subjects related to transportation modeling. The book introduces each step under the traditional 4-step transportation planning process in a separate chapter, in addition to topics such as discrete choice analysis. The way the topics are treated is perfect for someone with previous familiarity with the subject; it would be extremely difficult to hammer out all the details of transportation planning in a single 500 page volume. I would not recommend this book to the more inquisitive reader new to the subject as -in most cases- it may not explain why things are done the way they are. That said, I would strongly recommend it as a desktop reference for someone that may need a refresher on some of these topics from time to time. I would've given the book 4.5 stars if half stars were allowed.
