A world without cars would be unrecognizable. They have altered the shape of our cities, transformed our nations and landscapes, revolutionised the way we make and buy things, and profoundly influenced our relationship with speed itself.
From the Ford Model T and the legacy of mass production, to the GM LaSalle and the birth of style and obsolescence, and from the original Volkswagen expression of national identity to the GM Firebird and the desire for frictionless movement, this book presents the car as the driving force that accelerated the twentieth century. It takes an in-depth look at the history of the automobile and its impact, to better understand where we might want to go in the future.

Paperback. Condizione: New. The invention and increasingly wide availability of the motor car facilitated faster and more independent travel, but it also transformed our environment and the way we live. This well-illustrated social history reviews how the motor industry and car culture shaped society from the development of mass production and 20th-century industry to the designed environment in the form of the vehicles themselves and the pattern of our buildings and cities.
