Elly Blue's Bikenomics provides a surprising and compelling new
perspective on the way we get around, where we live, and how we spend
our money. The book provides an unflinching look at the real costs of
transportation and roads, for households and society at large, and
shares the success stories of people, businesses, organizations, and
cities that are investing in two-wheeled transportation. The
multifaceted North American bicycle movement is revealed, with its
contradictions, challenges, successes, and visions. Bikenomics does
for transportation what The Omnivore's Dilemma did for food. Whether
or not you ride a bicycle, reading this book will forever change the way
you see the world around you.
An instant classic when it was first published in 2013, Bikenomics has
been revised and updated for its second edition, including a new
introduction by the author.
