Recomendo, apesar de algumas limitaçoes

Apesar do livro ser, por vezes, redundante e ser pouco abrangente em relação aos 4 modais de transporte (dá ênfase no transporte aéreo) é um dos únicos textos que analisa o transporte na perspectiva do turimo. Sendo assim, apesar destas limitações é um texto que serve de guia a todos os professores e pesquisadores lidando com o assunto.Although this book is, sometimes, redundant and not comprehensive to the 4 transportation modes (emphasis is in aerial transportation) it has an approach which is rare: transportation in the point of view of tourism. So, I recommend this book, although these limitations, because it serves as basic path to professors and researchers dealing with this important matter.
