'Ports are again moving upstream, into the hinterland where the whole thing started centuries ago. From waterfront bottlenecks, ports, or rather dryports, are now becoming crucial nodes in global supply chains. This book is a primer for everyone with an interest in modern cargo transport systems. The competence of the authors and the profound expertise of its three editors guarantee that this book will remain on the top of our desk for years to come.' H.E. Haralambides, Center for Maritime Economics and Logistics, Erasmus University Rotterdam, The Netherlands 'Dry Ports - A Global Perspective adds significant value to existing literature on inland freight terminals and embodies a long-awaited, creative synthesis of the state of the art in the field. Building on an effective, modern and collective intelligence approach to open innovation, and benefiting from the contribution of the most current thinking from researchers and practitioners alike, this book will soon become a classic reference in the field of transport logistics. It is an impressive, riveting and most rewarding piece of work.' Jose Maria Rubiato, UNCTAD, Geneva
