"For planners and architects, engineers, politicians, and community workers, it is worth having this book as a reference and a stark, evidence-filled reminder of the incompatibility of people, cars, and livable streets. The book documents many efforts from around the world and includes stories of incredible persistence and talent, engaged in reimagining streets for people. Those examples, ideas and case studies together make the book a valuable resource and an inspiration to do more." --Journal of Urban Affairs, Frank Palermo
