"Decisions for a Decade: Policies and Programs for the 1970's" is an insightful analysis of the political, social, and economic challenges facing the United States at the dawn of a new era. Written by Senator Edward M. Kennedy, this work outlines a comprehensive and forward-thinking legislative agenda designed to navigate the complexities of a nation in transition. The text explores critical issues of the time, ranging from domestic concerns like poverty, civil rights, and education to the intricate demands of international relations and military policy.

Kennedy provides a visionary roadmap for the future, advocating for progressive reforms and systemic changes to improve the lives of all Americans. By examining the successes and failures of past administrations, the author presents a persuasive argument for proactive governance and civic engagement. This work serves as both a significant historical document and a reflection of the political philosophy that would define one of the most enduring legacies in the United States Senate. It offers readers a unique perspective on the ideological debates of the late 1960s and the policy priorities that sought to shape the American landscape throughout the 1970s and beyond.

Mapping the Travel Behavior Genome
<p><i>Mapping the Travel Behavior Genome</i> covers the latest research on the biological, motivational, cognitive, situational, and dispositional factors that drive activity-travel behavior. Organized into three sections, <i>Retrospective and Prospective Survey of Travel Behavior Research, New Research Methods and Findings, and Future Research</i>, the chapters of this book provide evidence of progress made in the most recent years in four dimensions of the travel behavior genome. These dimensions are <i>Substantive Problems, Theoretical and Conceptual Frameworks, Behavioral Measurement, and Behavioral Analysis. </i>Including the movement of goods as well as the movement of people, the book shows how traveler values, norms, attitudes, perceptions, emotions, feelings, and constraints lead to observed behavior&#x3b; how to design efficient infrastructure and services to meet tomorrow's needs for accessibility and mobility&#x3b; how to assess equity and distributional justice&#x3b; and how to assess and implement policies for improving sustainability and quality of life. </p> <p><i>Mapping the Travel Behavior Genome</i> examines the paradigm shift toward more dynamic, user-centric, demand-responsive transport services, including the "sharing economy," mobility as a service, automation, and robotics. This volume provides research directions to answer behavioral questions emerging from these upheavals.</p>
