Outstanding commentary on the meaning of cars in America June 23, 2000
Delightful narrative, intersperced with sardonic interviews, that summarizes the relationships of average Americans to the cars and their environment. Taxi drivers, Lawyers, Mechanics, housewives, and urban traffic planners are all thrown into the mix with their opinions on what the car means to us, and how it fits into their lives.
Learning from the drivers, not the "experts"... January 13, 1998
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The Bergers explore new territory (literally and figuratively) by asking Americans themselves what they think about the environmental consequences of their automobiles. It's a refreshing antidote to the ideological treatises dispensed by the "experts" from Washington DC, Detroit and California, and helped me approach the subject in a fresh light. Worth tracking down, even if hard to find...
