Confessions of a Recovering Engineer: Transportation for a Strong Town

 by Charles L. Marohn Jr.

From the Back Cover, from Amazon… “The costs of the North American transportation system are too high—not just in money, but in time, safety, and quality of life. Most Americans sense the transportation system is working against rather than for them, that the money spent on transportation may temporarily address a problem but ultimately makes their lives worse. They also feel powerless because they can’t put their finger on why it’s so bad, or how it can be made better. 

“Americans are rightly frustrated, yet what most suspect to be wrong about transportation is only part of the story. The reality is worse in many ways, with our efforts to fix these systems only reinforcing the problems we are hoping to solve. A new approach is needed.
