Sobre este artículo
New York: Crown Publishers [0-517-58702-5] 1997. (Hardcover) 418pp. Very good in very good plus dust jacket. Photographs, notes, bibliography, index. Lightly shelfworn and the dust jacket has shallow chipping to the edges and corners. "The automobile was once seen as a boon to American life, eradicating the pollution caused by horses and granting citizens new levels of personal freedom and mobility. But it was not long before the servant became the master - public spaces were designed to accomodate the automobile at the expense of the pedestrian, mass transportation was neglected, and the poor, unable to afford cars, saw their access to jobs and amenities worsen". Locale: United States. (Automobiles, Automobiles, Pollution, Public Transportation, Social Conditions, Transportation, Urban Life).
