Description
Cars are everywhere, it is impossible to imagine a place where they do not exist or cannot reach, impossible to think of an event, magazine, street, where there is no advertising for a car. Cars limit us while promising us freedom, filling our cities and emptying our wallets. Andrea Coccia tells us how the automotive industry has completely shaped the world we live in, creating a society built around the automobile. From the transition from railways to highways, to our days and our cities constantly congested by columns of cars blocked one behind the other, the author opens our eyes to the urgency of opposing a world in the service of the automobile and imagines new, more sustainable mobility strategies.
