economics, management, urban studies, political science and the social sciences. The Center was established in 1973 and is currently directed by Professor Daniel Roos. On the training front the Center organises mid-career courses for professionals and coordinates a new interdisciplinary Masters program in Transportation Studies. Research conducted by the full-time staff and by faculty associates is focused strongly on matters of transport policy. Among the projects underway is one dealing with transport-energy contingency planning, one with transport planning in Brazil, Egypt and Nigeria, and a recently negotiated project investigating the future of the automobile. Research completed at the Center is made available through a report series and through the MIT Press series in Transportation Studies. Titles available in the MIT Press series are The Automobile and the Environment (Edited by Ralph Gakenheimer, 1978), The Urban Transportation System (Alan Altshuler et al., 1979), Planning and Politics (Juri Pill, 1979)and Fundamentals of Transportation Systems Analysis (Marvin Manheim, 1979).In turn, these books were reviewed in this Journal in Volume 13A, No. 5.1979,~~. 367-368; Volume 14A,No. 3,1980,pp. 221-223; Volume 13A, No. 6, 1979, pp. 470-471, and Volume l3A, No. 6, 1979, pp. 467-468.
