Customer Reviews:

Not the best.

As an eco aware kind of guy I thought this book would be the very thing to help me go that extra green mile without unbalancing the carbon scale. It didn't help much at all though I'm afraid. It tells of the problems of car use but surely is only preaching this to people who already know and care or wouldn't have bought the book. It is otherwise lacking in further motivation to get you on your bike or into your walking boots. The little that is offered is for such a worthy aim that I felt 2 stars was fair otherwise a book so devoid of relevant information could well have scored a nil.
So many works are coming out now on greener living that to take things further, subject specific books are now necessary but the job needs to be done a little better than this.

A useful guide but perhaps not relevant for all.

This short book is a bit of an eye opener to the cost of running a car. However, it doesn't seem relevant to everyone. For instance, it assumes that you live near decent public transport links.

The advice is useful in that it does offer alternatives, including how to reduce the cost of running a car, and not just preach that people shouldn't have a car at all.

A great book to cut car use and save you money

At last - a book which does not glorify travel, but looks at the problems of car culture, whilst giving practical tips on how individuals can help to solve them. Reading this book and putting into practice the proposals will raise your quality of life. I commend it most highly.
