Excellent overview of the real financial, health, and environmental costs of the individual automobile culture in the USA. Although I wholeheartedly agree with their assessment, I found at times that the evidence they used was a bit weak, but it's still an important book.

This book is about the automobile and how it has shaped American culture and society. Of course, nothing it says about cars is positive. Cars affect our health, social life, economy, etc., all in a negative way. The authors send special venom towards the auto industry, which sells cars with marketing that masks all the bad things that they do. It makes me want to sell my car and move to a city where I can live without one.
