[From the cover] "This book scrutinizes the social, political, and technological forces that shaped our cities and their transportation systems. By comparing two of the most powerful twentieth-century economies, the United States and West Germany, it explores the factors - largely those of economic concentration and bureaucratic centralization - that transformed urban life. In examining the historical conditions that led to the current crisis of urban transportation, the book offers an explanation of past urban and economic policy failures".
