Summary:
«Ce livre constitue une tentative d'exposer les principes de la statique dans leur simplicité originelle et de la présenter comme un exercice de logique, un raisonnement dont l'itinéraire n'a pas besoin d'emprunter le raccourci mathématique.» Le fait est que les mystères du fonctionnement des machines, de la solidité des ponts, de la puissance des presses hydrauliques, de la stabilité des bâtiments laissent place à l'émerveillement devant la simplicité des principes qui les gouvernent. La science des forces en équilibre, la statique, est la plus ancienne des science modernes et reste la plus importante dans la vie quotidienne. Dans cette brillante présentation, la théorie n'est pas séparée de ses applications anciennes et modernes, ni les idées de leur histoire. Écoutons-donc Archimède, Stevin, Descartes, Galilée, Newton, Torricelli, Pascal nous expliquer la structure des gratte-ciel et des ponts, les mécanismes des grues et des vérins, la résistance des matériaux et les paradoxes de l'hydrostatique. Ce qui s'amorce ici pourrait bien être une nouvelle pédagogie des sciences.

Summary:
The design of infrastructural networks—that is, roads, railways and any system that enables flow within a structure such as a city—is among urban design's foremost tasks. Around the globe, the awareness of enhanced infrastructure fluidity as a catalyst for economic development is rising. The Landscape of Contemporary Infrastructure investigates how infrastructure design determines the organization and flow of the inhabited landscape—as an agency of enhanced mobility, as a design feature contributing to the character of a city and as a sound theoretical approach to a positive experience of collective space. These issues are explored in four chapters that catalogue these approaches, each chapter buttressed with key projects from the world's most important designers in this field, including Arata Isozaki, Paul Andreu, Xaveer De Geyter, Jean Nouvel and Ricardo Bofill. The authors demonstrate how the creative potential of architecture, landscape architecture and urban design is essential to the effective flow of infrastructural networks.
