Mr. Adams is a reader in geography at University College London, He was a member of the original board of directors of Friends of the Earth and has long been involved in the debate about transport and its social and environmental consequences. His 1981 book Transport Planning: vision and practice, explored the influence of competing "visions of progress," a theme to which he returned in his most recent book Risk (UCL Press, 1995). Mr. Adams lives in north London, cycles to work in good weather and takes the bus when it rains. He has not owned a car for five years, and is a strong advocate for improving conditions for cyclists and bus users.
