Description
Chronicling 30 years of public protest, government U-turns and environmental destruction, this is the story of Britain's transport policy
'Insightful and full of wonderful colour and incident - this is probably the best dissection of an 'environmental' movement that I have read'
'As a movement for social change it is important that we understand our own history. This is a compelling read.'
'Entertainingly lifts the lid on the real-world to-ing and fro-ing of policy making in what is often a hotly - and sometimes a bitterly - contested environment'
'I couldn't put it down until I'd read it right to the end. And even then I wanted more. It's fascinating, important, and very well-informed'
