Walter
Weart new member of the writing team, has added more recent
tables, examples and recommended readings, assuring that this
edition is as up to date as possible.
To
support the instructor, Walter Weart has written a new instructor's
manual with a test bank (ISBN 0-324- 00752-3). This supplement
includes Learning Objectives, key terms, and a detailed chapter
outline for each chapter. There are notes for the cases, Internet
activities and other additional teaching materials. The testing
material is comprised mainly of multiple choice, short answer
and essay questions.
-
Also new to this edition is an appendix with URL listings for
all companies and organizations related to transportation that
we mention in the text.
While
making changes to the new edition, we retained features of the
book that made previous editions successful: "Stop Off", that
expand chapter material and deepen students understanding with
real life examples, thorough chapter outlines, and summaries
along with suggested readings and cases.
