Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. 340 pages. Longlisted for the Guardian First Book Award 2014We don't just look at buildi ngs: their facades, beautiful or ugly, conceal the spaces we inhabit. We are bor n, work, love and die in architecture. We buy and sell it, rent it and squat in it, create and destroy it. These aspects of buildings - economic, erotic, politi cal and psychological - are crucial if we are to understand architecture properl y. And because architecture moulds us just as much as we mould it, understanding architecture helps us to understand our lives and our world. Through ten great buildings across the world Tom Wilkinson reveals the powerful and intimate relat ionship between society and architecture and asks: can architecture change our l ives for the better?THE TEN BUILDINGS: The Tower of Babel, Babylon (c. 650 BC), The Golden House, Rome (AD 64-68), Djinguereber Mosque, Timbuktu (1327), Palazzo Rucellai, Florence (1450), The Garden of Perfect Brightness, Beijing (1709-1860 ), Festival Theatre, Bayreuth, Germany (1876), Highland Park Car Factory, Detroi t (1909-1910), E.1027, Cap Martin (1926-29), Finsbury Health Centre, London (193 8), Footbridge, Rio de Janeiro, London (2010).
