More about the book
The book critiques urban environments that prioritize the needs of strong, able-bodied citizens while marginalizing vulnerable populations such as the elderly, disabled, and children. It highlights how the dominance of automobiles, favored by the privileged, harms public health, aesthetics, and mobility for everyone else, creating a hostile atmosphere. Through this analysis, it calls for a reimagining of cities to foster inclusivity and support for all citizens, regardless of their abilities or socioeconomic status.
