Focusing his attention upon lithographs and photographs of Mexico created by European and North American visitors, Fullerton argues that the introduction of the illustrated press and the popular photographic album towards the end of the 19th century transformed the private space of the printed page. He contends that the dynamics of the moving image were informed by the convergence of these media forms.

Summary:
Through the presentation of an international research project funded by the European Union, on the way people diagnosed with autism live, the book brings to the attention of Architectural Design a theme hitherto mainly addressed by other sectors of knowledge and design. Taking into consideration not only the assumed deficits but also the meaning-making skills and narratives of persons diagnosed with autism, the relationship between architecture and autism or, more generally, neurodivergences, shows its potential to expand architecture’s assumptions and possibilities rather than limiting them, by transcending the most widely-held common places and conventions.

In the 1980s, Bilbao was Spain’s most polluted city due to the mining and iron industries that had served as its main sources of employment, by then in terminal decline. In 1993, seven years after Spain joined the European Union, a radical transformation was initiated, and celebrated architects such as Santiago Calatrava, Norman Foster, and Frank O. Gehry were brought on board to design buildings that would serve as icons of the reinvented Bilbao. Swiss photographer Roger Wehrli documented this transformation, which was so successful that Bilbao has since become a model for former industrial centers throughout Europe.
