Recommended Reading

CARtoons, by Andy Singer
A humorous collection of more than 85 cartoons and illustrations, as well as facts, figures and resources. Sure to put a smile on your face... and give you more than enough reasons to kick the habit.

Car Sick, by Lynn Sloman
A UK-specific book on car culture and society's addiction to the car, this book (despite the negative title) inspires hope for change. Sloman reminds us, citing the shift in attitudes to smoking, that change can come swiftly.

Divorce Your Car!, by Katie Alvord
Gives readers lots of information on why to change their driving behaviour without waiting for broader social change. Divorce Your Car! provides all the reasons not to drive and lists the many car-free alternatives.

For Love of the Automobile, by Wolfgang Sachs
Examining the history of the automobile from the late 1880s to the present, Sachs shows how the car gave form to the dreams and desires embedded in modern society—for speed, independence, comfort, status, glamour and power—and in so doing reshaped our very notions of time and space, our individual and societal values, and our outlook on progress and the future. An excellent and detailed cultural history of the car.
