具体描述
An exploration of the intimate and inextricable relationship between architecture, power, money and politics in the twentieth century. How and why have presidents, prime ministers, mayors, millionaires and bishops come to share such a fascination with architecture? From Blair to Mitterrand, from Hitler to Stalin to Saddam Hussein, architecture has become an end in itself, as well as a means to an end. This is a book of genuine timeliness, throwing new light on the aspirations and the motivations of the rich and powerful across the world - and on the political nature of contemporary culture.

He was Director of the Venice Architecture Biennale in 2002 and is author of the much-praised 100-Miles City, the best-selling Architecture Pack, and monographs on John Pawson, Ron Arad and Richard Rogers.

评分作者的一个观点很正确——“建筑与权力息息相关。当权者喜欢建筑有其必然的原因：从最基本的方面来说，土木建设可以提供大量的工作机会，吸收剩余劳动力，有助于社会稳定，当权者的决断和魄力也能从中很好地体现出来，而更重要的是，建筑可以作为一种手段，通过它来告诉世人建...
