<i>'The book treats an important topic in a novel way. The novelty comes to a large extent from the format of having European researchers write together with researchers from North America on an applied topic. This setup provides some interesting perspectives on the differences in problem formulation and scientific analysis on the two sides of the Atlantic.'</i>

<i>'This excellent volume is a landmark in the challenging and multifaceted field of institutions and transport. It brings together the work of leading experts from Europe, the United States and Canada to provide a superb overview of transatlantic perspectives on the role of institutional change, regulatory reform and public-private cooperation in supporting efficiency, equity and sustainability, in various transport markets and networks. This prestigious book will serve as an illuminating source of ideas and insights for planners, policy makers and those working on the international research frontier, now and in the future.'</i>

<i>'This an outstanding and very needed work. Not only is it comprehensive, it links critical infrastructure to management institutions that are essential to its regulation and effective operations. Rietveld and Stough bring a new and fresh perspective to this centrally important issue. I would recommend the book not only to students and faculty but to the thoughtful practitioner who is interested in the broad issue of institutional sustainability in the light of infrastructure management. Transportation is the focus but the broad issues of institutions is the crux of the analysis. It is the best and most up-to-date work in the field that is empirically based.'</i>
