A book passionately defending balloon flight for human beings, celebrating the 175th anniversary of The London Library From all points of the world I see man rising with the promptness of electricity, soaring in the air, and descending like a bird when and where he wishes Although man's desire to fly has existed for as long as we have (Daedalus and Icarus, the flying chariots of Sanskrit epics, Leonardo da Vinci's Codex on the Flight of Birds), the modern era of flight did not begin until 1783, with the demonstration of the first working hot-air balloon by the Montgolfier brothers. The first passengers were a duck, a sheep and a rooster. Air travel went from strength to strength, and Nadar's sixty-metre high balloon, Le Géant, was the biggest balloon ever built. Requiring 300 seamstresses to assemble its 22,000 yards of silk, it was not a success. But it paved the way for thinking on heavier-than-air flight—which would eventually lead to the "the first sustained and controlled heavier-than-air powered flight" in 1903 by the Wright brothers. The Right to Fly is part of "Found on the Shelves", published with The London Library. The books in this series have been chosen to give a fascinating insight into the treasures that can be found while browsing in The London Library. Now celebrating its 175th anniversary, with over seventeen miles of shelving and more than a million books, The London Library has become an unrivalled archive of the modes, manners and thoughts of each generation which has helped to form it.

Mobility is fundamental to economic and social activities such as commuting, manufacturing, or supplying energy. Each movement has an origin, a potential set of intermediate locations, a destination, and a nature which is linked with geographical attributes. Transport systems composed of infrastructures, modes and terminals are so embedded in the socio-economic life of individuals, institutions and corporations that they are often invisible to the consumer. This is paradoxical as the perceived invisibility of transportation is derived from its efficiency. Understanding how mobility is linked with geography is main the purpose of this book. The third edition of The Geography of Transport Systems has been revised and updated to provide an overview of the spatial aspects of transportation. This text provides greater discussion of security, energy, green logistics, as well as new and updated case studies, a revised content structure, and new figures. Each chapter covers a specific conceptual dimension including networks, modes, terminals, freight transportation, urban transportation and environmental impacts. A final chapter contains core methodologies linked with transport geography such as accessibility, spatial interactions, graph theory and Geographic Information Systems for transportation (GIS-T). This book provides a comprehensive and accessible introduction to the field, with a broad overview of its concepts, methods, and areas of application. The accompanying website for this text contains a useful additional material, including digital maps, PowerPoint slides, databases, and links to further reading and websites. The website can be accessed at: http://people.hofstra.edu/geotrans This text is an essential resource for undergraduates studying transport geography, as well as those interest in economic and urban geography, transport planning and engineering.
