Zusatztext "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!

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.
