Synopsis
'A book of ideas [...] Strathern ably guides us through these moments of glory.' -- The Times *** Great cities are complex, chaotic and colossal. These are cities that dominate the world stage and define eras; where ideas flourish, revolutions are born and history is made. Through ten unique cities, from the founding of ancient capitals to buzzing modern megacities, Paul Strathern explores how urban centres lead civilisation forward, enjoying a moment of glory before passing on the baton. We journey back to discover Babylonian mathematics, Athenian theatre and intellectual debate, and Roman construction that has lasted millennia. We see Constantinople evolve into Istanbul, revolutionary sparks fly in Enlightenment Paris, and the railways, canals and ships that built Imperial London. In Moscow men build spaceships while others starve, New York's skyscrapers rise up to a soundtrack of jazz, Mumbai becomes home to immense wealth and poverty, and Beijing's economic transformation leads the way. Each city has its own distinct personality, and Ten Cities that Led the World brings their rich and diverse histories to life, reminding us of the foundations we have built on and how our futures will be shaped., 'A book of ideas [...] Strathern ably guides us through these moments of glory.' -- The Times *** Great cities are complex, chaotic and colossal.

- c***7 (4053)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufPlum Circle is one of my absolute favorite eBay sellers! I have made dozens of purchases from them over the years! Their listings are very accurate -- most books are new or remainders and the odd ex-library book is clearly identified so there are never any unhappy surprises! Most books appear new and they are always SO well packed and protected! Even though they don't offer shipping discounts their prices are super competitive and you will ALWAYS get lovely quality books that arrive undamaged!
