    • Przez większą część XX wieku wydawało się, że rower jest wynalazkiem, który prędzej czy później odejdzie do lamusa, oddając pola masowej motoryzacji, ewentualnie pozostanie tylko atrybutem ubranych w lycrę fanów sportu. Dla wielu ludzi powrót do rowerów jako codziennego środka transportu w miastach który jest faktem wciąż wydaje się czymś trudnym do wyobrażenia. Właśnie o tym niezwykłym fenomenie traktuje książka Petera Walkera.

    • This book is a 'must-have' for any pilgrim attending the (delayed) once-in-a-decade running of "The Passion Play" at Oberammergau. The play is in German, and English-speaking drama goers might be confused about where they are in the story and how much dramatic license the director might have taken. This book outlines the entire modern drama scene by scene and links it to the New Testament story.
