Vertical Author: Stephen Graham
ISBN: 9781781687932 Format: Hardcover Number Of Pages: 416 Published: 23 November 2016 Country of Publication: GB Dimensions (cm): 23.4 x 15.3 x 3.9 Description: From the penthouse to the sewers-the political geography of the vertical city
Vertical is a brilliant re-imagining of the world we live in. Today we live in a world that can no longer be read as a two-dimensional map. In Vertical Stephen Graham rewrites the city at every level, calling for a a new understanding of our surroundings that takes into account above and below: why Dubai has been built to be seen from GoogleEarth; how the superrich in Sao Paulo live their penthouse lives far from the street; why London billionaires build vast subterranean basements rather than move house.
Vertical will make you look at the city anew: from the viewfinders of drones, satellites, from the top of skyscrapers, at street-level and from underground bunkers: this is a new politics of space and geography.
