Book review: The Network Reliability of Transport

I guess you would have to have attended the conference yourself or be a researcher in this very field to actually go and buy The Network Reliability of Transport by Michael G. H. Bell (Editor), Yasunori Iida (Editor). It’s definitely worth a read, as it presents a cross-section of the current state of the art knowledge within the field. These are the people you would want to cooperate with in your own research and reading their articles is one way to get to know them. These are the same authors who wrote Transportation Network Analysis, and who I was lucky enough too meet at INSTR 2004, the 2nd International Symposium on Transportation Network Reliability.
