A 15-minute city is a city designed to ensure that all residents can access essential amenities within a 15-minute walk or bike ride. These cities play a crucial role in shaping the lives of their inhabitants, influencing their travel patterns, activities, and overall quality of life. However, what if we approached urban living differently? What if we explored alternative modes of transportation and reclaimed the time spent commuting? In her comprehensive and easily accessible book, "The 15-Minute City: A New Way of Living," Natalie Whittle delves into the concept of the 15-minute city, examining its advantages, disadvantages, and potential to transform modern living. With the urgent need to address climate change and the significant decline in commuting due to COVID-19, Whittle's timely book serves as a wake-up call to reflect on our daily routines and the choices we make. By focusing on space and time, Whittle explores historical models from ancient Athens to modern Paris, showcasing how a single idea can have a profound impact on our daily lives and the world around us.
