This is the spark for an improvisatory romance, which gingerly ignores all sense of plot and drama. The reader is transported between 1890's Chicago and 198O's small town Michigan, helped along by thousands of coloured illustrations and diagrams which provide a startling illusion of life and movement. The bulk of the book is supported by fold-out instructions, an index, paper cut-outs and brief notes.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49510760087825,"sku":"GOR013420376","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51553575862545,"sku":"CIN0375400486VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":52819541426449,"sku":"CIN0375400486G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53562668810513,"sku":"GOR009865202","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0375400486.jpg?v=1750942162"},{"product_id":"vittorio-gregotti-book-joseph-rykwert-9780847819515","title":"Vittorio Gregotti","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49526138929425,"sku":"GOR005505072","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50276747411729,"sku":"CIN0847819515VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0847819515.jpg?v=1751171113"},{"product_id":"seduction-of-place-book-joseph-rykwert-9780297819998","title":"The Seduction of Place","description":"Eminent architectural historian, Jospeh Rykwert looks at the complex story of the city since the industrial revolution. He draws on  sociology, social, economic and political history and their complex interactions with the history of architecture. Rykwert's knowledge of world cities is remarkable, and the book will draw on Shanghai as much as Los Angeles, Rio as well as London, Melbourne as well as Paris, both in looking at past developments and for models for the future. His book is also a timely celebration of metropolitan values that have recently been denigrated: tolerance, liberalism, cultural vitality, pluralism.

What have we made them, and how ought they to be? How has our vision of the city evolved over time, and can we really influence change and effect improvements?  In this vibrant cultural history of the city, Joseph Rykwert explores the great cities of the modern world, examining their fabric and assessing how successfully they have met the needs of their inhabitants. From the teeming city centres of the industrial revolution to the exclusive gated suburbs of the 21st century, from the Parisian boulevards of Haussmann to the 'green' architecture of Emilio Ambasz, Rykwert charts the complex story of the growth of the city, setting architectural development firmly within a political, economic, social, and cultural context.  Drawing on examples from Brasilia to Islamabad, Shanghai to Houston, Rykwert presents a fascinating analysis of urban growth, arguing forcefully that as voters and consumers we need to consider the economic, social, and cultural implications of developments and demonstrate our resistance to them if necessary. The arguments over the future of the Ground Zero site in Manhattan encapsulate the conflicting demands of civic pride and public utility set against private gain that vie for dominance in the 21st century, and exemplify the choices that, as citizens, we must all eventually make.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ WELL_READ \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49623653843217,"sku":"GOR008097212","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49726009901329,"sku":"GOR002615863","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51320789860625,"sku":"GOR002616184","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51333038080273,"sku":"CIN0192805541G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52476562768145,"sku":"NLS9780192805546","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53144191762705,"sku":"GOR009439421","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0192805541.jpg?v=1751037169"},{"product_id":"fragments-of-wilderness-city-book-joseph-rykwert-9781904772583","title":"Fragments of Wilderness City","description":"Fragments of Wilderness City reviews the work of renowned architect Brian Avery.

In this famous, unusual and radical book which touches on such disparate themes as psychology and urban architecture, Joseph Rykwert has considered them as works of art. His starting point is the mythical, historical and ritual texts in which their foundation is recounted rather than the excavated remains, such texts having parallels not merely in ancient Greece but also further afield Mesopotamia, India and China.  To achieve his reading of the Roman town, he has invoked the comparative method of the anthropologists, and he examines first of all the 'Etruscan rite', a group of ceremonies by which all, or practically all, Roman towns were founded. The basic institutions of the town, its walls and gates, its central shrines and its forum are all of them part of a pattern to which the rituals and the myths that accompanied them provide clues. Like in other 'closed' societies, these rituals and myths served to create a secure home for the citizen of Rome and to make him feel part of his city and place it firmly in a knowable universe.  'It is refreshing to look at standard themes of the history of urban design from a nonrational point of view, to see surveyors as quasi priests and orthogonal planning as a sophisticated technique touched by divine mystery . . .. Rykwert's lasting worth will be to wrench us away from rationalist simplicities, and to make us face the fundamental disquietof the human spirit in its claim to a permanent place on the land.'

The Judicious Eye, then, provides a necessary foundation for understanding architecture and visual art in the twenty-first century, as they continue to break new ground by growing closer to their intertwined roots.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":50799529263377,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50799529885969,"sku":"GOR009007150","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1861893582.jpg?v=1750834717"},{"product_id":"richard-meier-architect-book-joseph-rykwert-9780847820481","title":"Richard Meier, Architect","description":"Kindness Reciprocated introduces the readers to an opportunity to voluntarily meet the Best of the Best International Infantry Military while they are training at Fort Benning, Georgia with America's Best  We meet Military students and determine our similarities and differences while sharing personal experiences.

One of very few writers to be awarded the RIBA’s highest honour, the Royal Gold Medal, in 2014, and author of countless books and essays, his influence over the past 60 years cannot be underestimated.

He addresses the dualities between which he had to navigate: Jewish\/Polish, Polish\/British and later Practice\/Scholarship. He spent most of his working life between the US and UK, and worked as a designer, teacher and a writer; as such, his groundbreaking ideas and work have had a major impact on the thinking of architects and designers since the 1960s, and continue to do so to this day.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51599293317393,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51599293546769,"sku":"NGR9781041077305","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1041077300.jpg?v=1751080877"},{"product_id":"evans-shalev-book-joseph-rykwert-9781911422174","title":"Evans + Shalev","description":"It is difficult to imagine the history of modern architecture in Britain being written without reference to the work of Eldred Evans and David Shalev.
