The Economic Geography of Air Transportation

Space, Time, and the Freedom of the Sky

By: John T. Bowen

Like the railroad and the automobile, the airliner has changed the very geography of the societies it serves. Fundamentally, air transportation has helped redefine the scale of human geography by dramatically reducing the cost of distance, both in terms of time and money. The result is what the author terms the ‘airborne world’, meaning all those places dependent upon and transformed by relatively inexpensive air transportation. The Economic Geography of Air Transportation answers three key questions: how did air transportation develop in the century after the Wright Brothers, what does it mean to live in an airborne world, and what is the future of aviation in this century? Examples are drawn from throughout the world. In particular, ample consideration is given to the situation in developing countries, where air transportation is growing rapidly and where, to a considerable degree, the future of the airborne world will be determined. The book weaves together the technological development of aviation, the competition among aircraft manufacturers and their stables of airliners, the deregulation and privatization of the airline industry, the articulation of air passenger and air cargo services in everyday life, and the challenges and controversies surrounding airports. It will be of particular interest to students and researchers in air transport history, the geography of the airline industry, air transport technological development, competition in the commercial aircraft industry, airport development, geography and economics. It will also be useful to professionals working in the airline, airport, and aircraft manufacturing industries.

Acoustical Imaging

By: John P. Powers

This volume contains forty-one papers presented at the Eleventh International Symposium on Acoustical Imaging held on 4-7 Ma~ in Monterey, California. The objective of this conference series is to bring together workers in diverse areas and applications of Acoustical Imaging for interaction and exchange of ideas. People working in other aspects of scalar wave theory and applications also benefit from this series. The papers presented here demonstrate continued growth in the activity of this field. In this conference there was emphasis on New Techniques, Acoustic Tomography, Tissue Characterization, Signal Processing, Inversion Techniques, and Transducers and Arrays. The success and stimulation of the conference and of the papers presented in this volume is owed, of course to the authors and participants. Many thanks are due to the authors and their co-workers for their diligence and enthusiasm in performing their research, preparing their manuscripts and presenting their results. The editor would like to express his appreciation to each and every one of them.
