Sinopsis

Damascus Markets explores the pivotal role of Damascus's commercial centers in shaping global trade and cultural exchange. For centuries, these markets acted as vital engines, influencing not only the flow of goods and capital but also the spread of ideas across continents. The book reconstructs the economic history of these markets, highlighting their evolution along the Silk Road and within Islamic empires, and examines their influence on the interaction of diverse cultures.

 
The book argues that Damascus markets were active agents in shaping global landscapes. For example, the exchange of commodities spurred innovation and fostered interconnectedness. Part one introduces the geographical and economic context, part two details the roles within the markets, and part three explores the markets' impact on cultural exchange.

 
By challenging Eurocentric views of globalization and using interdisciplinary methodologies, the book provides a comprehensive understanding of these markets' significance. It highlights how these hubs facilitated the diffusion of customs and artistic styles, leaving an enduring legacy on global trade and cultural exchange.

    Cars are killing people and making the planet uninhabitable. Crashes take the lives of more than a million people each year. Air pollution linked to motor vehicles contributes to even more untimely deaths. Highways and unsafe streets have devastated cities, yet traffic congestion still swallows up countless hours. And carbon emissions from transportation are a key driver of climate change, which threatens to make the world unlivable. Why do we still worship at the altar of the car? How can we find alternatives that are healthier for the planet and ourselves? 
      
    This book exposes how "Big Car"—the complex of companies in the automobile, oil, insurance, media, and concrete industries that promote and entrench car dependence—has pursued profit at the expense of the common good. David Obst explores how Big Car gained almost immeasurable influence over our lives, weighing the benefits and the costs of reliance on private automobiles. He details how industry covered up the harms of lead additives, fought against seatbelts, and continues to fund climate-change denialism. Obst considers the future of mobility, surveying how cities are experimenting with forms of transportation that offer alternatives to the dominance of cars. Provocative and comprehensive, Saving Ourselves from Big Car is a wake-up call for us to change how we use cars before it's too late.
