Bikenomics by Elly Blue
Bikenomics provides a surprising and compelling new perspective on the way we get around and on how we spend our money, as families and as a society. Bicycle transportation is good for a lot of things: it's healthy, it's green, it's quiet, it's fun and it builds community. It also makes financial sense and the magnitude of bicycling's economic impact gets far less attention than it deserves. In Bikenomics, Elly Blue explores the scope of that impact, from personal finance to local economies to the big picture of the national budget.Elly Blue is a bicycle activist and writer based in Portland, Oregon. Among other places, her writing has featured in The Guardian, Grist, Bicycling Magazine online, Bitch Magazine, BikePortland, The Magazine, and Momentum. On Democracy Now!, she was interviewed. She is a co-owner of Microcosm Publishing and co-producer and director of Groundswell, a series of films about people who use biking to improve their communities.
