University Transportation Research Center will host a Book Talk with Dr. Zimmerman for her new book on “transport, the Environment and Security – Making the Connection”. Rae Zimmerman is a Professor of Planning and Public Administration, Director of the Urban Planning Program and the Director of the Institute for Civil Infrastructure Systems (ICIS) at NYU-Wagner. In her presentation, she will provide a brief synopsis of the book. The book is aimed at academics, students, and practitioners across a wide range of fi elds including: transport planning and policy, environmental economics, environmental management, urban planning, public policy, and terrorism and security. Case studies of severe and potential impacts of natural hazards, accidents, and security breaches on transportation are presented. These cases support the analyses of the forces on transportation, land use and patterns of population change that connect, disconnect and reconnect people from their environment and security.
