Driving economic growth with an integrated maritime policy (2011)
Journal Article
Baird, A. (2011). Driving economic growth with an integrated maritime policy. Scottish transport review, 5-6

Alf Baird shows that maritime transport is sometimes ignored and unusually for a peripheral EU nation, Scotland has no maritime Trans European Transport Network initiative. It will be hard for Scotland to grow its exports without an integrated mariti... Read More about Driving economic growth with an integrated maritime policy.

Interactivity to Enhance Perception: Does Increased Interactivity in Mobile Visual Presentation Tools Facilitate More Accurate Rating of Textile Properties? (2011)
