'Cycling: A sociology of velomobility is as the title indicates a sociological tome that will please and challenge sociologists of sport and culture, but it is far more than thisIt is a must read for urban theorists and planners as well as anyone who lives in the city, regardless of their interest in or association with cycling.'
