'This book successfully combines international case studies and voices from authors of multiple academic disciplines to challenge car-oriented transportation research and practice. It highlights how car-oriented terminology, language, and discourses shape transportation and sustainability outcomes. The book is an eye-opener for practitioners and academics in sustainable transport as they can begin to learn how to detect and start to disentangle from car-dominated discourses and language.', 'Sustainable transport and urban development is key to future liveable cities, as the global urban population continues to grow across the world. A broader understanding of what are the most effective planning approaches to transport and urban development is required to move forward in a world facing climate uncertainties and growing population needs. Different perspectives and disciplinary approaches have provided, in recent years, a fresh take on ways to tackle some of the more complex urban problems. This book is among the first to bring together a mix of academics from a variety of disciplines, discussing different aspects of transport and urban development, using discourse analysis as primary methodological approach. This book provides researchers and students with a comprehensive discussion on the discourse analysis approach as well as useful case studies from a variety of contexts and geographies.', 'At a time of climate crisis, rapidly increasing urban inequalities and profound technological change, transport and urban planning must change radically. This requires new approaches to understanding the meanings and power relations that are inscribed into, and generated by, transport systems and governance. Discourse Analysis in Transport and Urban Development demonstrates compellingly how different kinds of discourse analysis can help transport researchers, students and professionals make sense of the many and power-laden contestations over how transport systems can and should be changed and improved.'
