A couple of years ago, Anna Zivarts collected the experiences of nondrivers from each of Washington State's 49 legislative districts. This book is one result of that. She distilled those stories into a review of who nondrivers are, what the barriers are that they face when getting around, and what they need in the transportation realm.

Her effort was driven by the observation that 25% of Washington state residents do not have driver licenses. If you count the people who do have licenses but do not have reliable use of cars (elderly folk where safety is an issue, families with one car for the entire household, etc.), the number of nondrivers becomes even larger.

Well-written, well-organized, well-argued, to the point. There's an epilogue on "what you can do" but thankfully that's short. The target audience seems to be not individual do-gooders, but people involved in transportation planning and transportation organizers.
