Reviews

Bicycle justice has become a major concern in the US. This group of authors provides an impressive array of case studies on bicycle justice and the overlooked or invisible riders creating bicycle advocacy and planning. These bike advocates promote more transportation choices for everyone while the transportation justice advocates demand that bicycling and all forms of transportation be understood as a civil rights issue. - Glenn S. Johnson, Associate Dean for Research and Graduate Studies, Texas Southern University, Barbara Jordan Mickey Leland School of Public Affairs, Houston, Texas, USA This book may indeed help start a movement for inclusive, equitable bicycle justice. Grounded in clear thinking and strong examples, this unique collection offers a probing assessment of both the tendency to stereotype deserving bicyclists, marginalizing others, and the patently inequitable distribution of public investments in bicycle infrastructure. - June M. Thomas, Centennial Professor, Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning, The University of Michigan, USA Postgraduates and academics will find this book rich and informative. This book would also serve as an excellent source for a course on urban transport justice .Cyrille Medard de Chardona,Universite du Luxembourg, Local Environment The International Journal of Justice and Sustainability
