Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Too Good To Be Forgotten: Changing America in the '60s and '70s by David Obst. SIGNED on title page. 1st edition. "Whether it be My Lai, Watergate, The Pentagon Papers, or any of the other tumultuous events of that era, Obst seems to be in the middle… of it. To understand this period, Too Good To Be Forgotten is a must read." Seymour M. Hersh "Hooray and Hallelujah! David Obst is finally telling all of his secrets about publishing, politics, and the kind of journalism spawned by Watergate. Read this book and head for the bunker." Kitty Kelley "David Obst is as crazy as the period he writes about. His stories make me both proud and ashamed to be part of his generation." P. J. O'Rourke "Occasionally lucid. Doubtless the most compelling book about David Obst yet written in this century." Taylor Branch "God knows many of them are fools, and most of them will be sellouts, but they're a better generation than we were. "very very good". Signed by Author.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Cars are killing people and making the planet uninhabitable. Crashes take the lives of more than a million people around the world each year. Air pollution linked to motor vehicles contributes to even more untimely deaths. Highways and unsafe streets have devastated cities, yet traffic conge…stion still swallows up countless hours. And carbon emissions from transportation are a key driver of climate change, which now threatens to make the world unlivable. Why do we still worship at the altar of the car? How can we find alternatives that are healthier for the planet and ourselves? Streetwise exposes how "Big Car"-the complex of companies in the automobile, oil, insurance, media, and concrete industries that promote and entrench car dependence-has pursued profit at the expense of the common good. David Obst explores how Big Car gained almost immeasurable influence over our lives, weighing the benefits and the costs of reliance on private automobiles. He details how industry covered up the harms of lead additives, fought against seatbelts, and continues to fund climate-change denialism. Obst considers the future of mobility, surveying how cities-from Taipei to Tempe, Copenhagen to Chicago-are experimenting with forms of transportation that offer alternatives to the dominance of cars. Provocative and comprehensive, Streetwise is a powerful wake-up call for us to change how we use cars before it's too late. This book exposes how Big Carthe complex of companies in the automobile, oil, insurance, media, and concrete industries that promote and entrench car dependencehas pursued profit at the expense of the common good. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
