Why don't you give exact delivery time?

Short description:
Originally published in 1963, and revised in 1975, this book remains a classic in its field and one of the best introductions to the principles of transport economics.
MoreLong description:
Originally published in 1982, this book gives a concise commentary on the development and performance of car ownership prediction procedures and a wide-ranging survey of the modelling techniques associated with forecasting. The book provides a basic appreciation of the key points, whether they are mathematical or otherwise. Throughout the book there is a theme which relates the academic debate surrounding the issue to technical rather than philosophical concepts.
