A historical context is provided by timelines, which open each chapter, while astonishing facts and detailed descriptions explain modern transport methods and networks. Stunning new photography and illustrations take the reader on an amazing visual journey, and ten inventive foldout features add to the dynamic concept of this exciting and original book.

Technology is explained, and exploded anatomies of selected vehicles show just how complex - or simple - their mechanics are. Stunning new photography and illustrations take the reader on an amazing visual journey, and ten inventive foldout features add to the dynamic concept of this exciting and original book.
