Why has "car society" proven so durable, even in the face of
mounting environmental and economic crises? In this follow-up to
his magisterial Atlantic Automobilism, Gijs Mom traces the global
spread of the automobile in the postwar era and investigates why
adopting more sustainable forms of mobility has proven so
difficult. Drawing on archival research as well as wide-ranging
forays into popular culture, Mom reveals here the roots of the
exuberance, excess, and danger that define modern automotive
culture.
