Reviews

Michael W. Pesses uses critical theory and a variety of films-from The Matrix to Mad Max to Pee Wee's Big Adventure-to help readers make sense of the impenetrable fog created by our ideology surrounding car-dependency. This book is a valuable read for anyone seeking a joyful yet critical look at contemporary American car culture and our challenged response to climate change. -- Steven M. Graves, California State University, Northridge
