A spatial and historical framework for understanding aviation
John T. Bowen approaches air transportation through economic geography, linking the industry’s development after the Wright Brothers to the ways aviation reshapes distance, time, and everyday life. Built from hundreds of mainly secondary sources, the book is organized around three broad questions: aviation’s first century of development, the implications of living in an airborne world, and possible directions for the field in the present century. The emphasis is on aviation as a global system whose effects extend beyond aircraft and airports to the organization of space and time.
Based on publisher information and book metadata.
Drawing upon hundreds of mainly secondary sources, this book answers three 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?
