Traffic: Why We Drive the Way We Do (and What It Says About Us)

$15.00 CAD

pp. viii, [3] 402. Small tear on back of dust jacket at the top. “The car has long been a central part of American life; whether we see it as a symbol of freedom or a symptom of sprawl, we define ourselves by what and how we drive. As Vanderbilt shows, driving is a provocatively revealing prism for examining how our minds work and the ways in which we interact with one another. Ultimately, Traffic is about more than driving: it’s about human nature. This book will change the way we see ourselves and the world around us. And who knows? It may even make us better drivers.”
