Reseña del libro "Walk for Your Life!: Restoring Neighborhood Walkways to Enhance Community Life, Improve Street Safety and Reduce Obesity (en Inglés)"

With obesity at an-all time high, America's children developing into medicated, overweight couch potatoes, and the looming fuel crisis, we need to look at what we can do to improve our societal situation. This thought-provoking book calls for the restoration of a walkable environment as the starting point of a solution to these pressing issues. Topics include: ? The Value of Walking and the Price of Not Walking ? Urban Sprawl and Automobile Dependence ? Underestimating the Problem of the Sedentary Lifestyle ? Children: an Endangered Species, The Older Pedestrian and Taxi Moms ? Driving Fatalities - 2.7 times more frequent than U.S. murders ? Commuting Stress, Air Pollution, and the Neglect of Public Transit ? The Decline in Walking ? Traffic and the Destruction of the Landscape ? Physical Inactivity and Health ? The Cost of Institutionalized Obesity ? Walking Prescriptions ? Creating Safe, Walkable Environments
