Summary:
Following on from his internationally bestselling books on Rome and Egypt, illustrator Stephen Biesty brings his magic touch to the cradle of civilization - classical Greece. The year is 436 BCE - Olympic year - and 11-year-old Neleus is about to embark on the journey of a lifetime. Setting off from his home in Miletus with his father and brother, our young hero's final destination is the great games at Olympia, but he has many adventures and sees many sights along the way : fearsome Athenian warships at the sacred island of Delos; the rich silver mines of Laurion; the hurly-burly of the port and streets of Athens; the splendour of the Agora and the Acropolis; and a visit to the sacred oracle at Delphi. Biesty's Greece is an illustrated tour-de-force, featuring a stunning array of cross-sections, cutaways and explosions. Each drawing highlights Biesty's trademark attention to detail and is backed up by authoritative text and annotations. Biesty's eye for the quirky details of daily life combines with a witty and engaging text to provide an unforgettable window into the world of ancient Greece. Pitched at the 9-12-year-old, this book is destined to bring the ancient world to life for a wide range of readers. No aspect of Greek life is left out... domestic life, religion and the gods, the role of women, children and education, philosophy and learning, myths and legends, government, politics and law, economy and trade, warfare and slavery, the Olympic Games, music and drama, painting, pottery and sculpture, building and architecture, ships and seafaring.

Summary:
"Monsters and Mutants" spotlights Archi-Tectonics’ novel architectural taxonomies that were implemented in the firm’s award-winning master plan from the 2023 Asian Games. It presents a provocation for a new approach to reverse the consequences of the Anthropocene, by learning from plant intelligence. New York-based design firm Archi-Tectonics’ recent research on climate change opened up a field unknown to architecture so far. By emulating organic intelligence, Winka Dubbeldam and her team created a series of new architectural taxonomies: Hybrids and Earth Buildings, part nature, part architecture. Appropriating organic intelligence, these structures are at once resilient, resource-efficient, and beneficial for humans and non-humans, capable of healing our ecosystem.

Roughly half of the raw materials we extract go into the world’s built environment. Construction creates an estimated one-third of the globe’s overall waste and at least 40 per cent of carbon emissions. These are devastating figures, but they also mean that the construction sector has the power to make a relevant contribution to reversing the climate emergency. In several(...)

Construction creates an estimated one-third of the globe’s overall waste and at least 40 per cent of carbon emissions. These are devastating figures, but they also mean that the construction sector has the power to make a relevant contribution to reversing the climate emergency. In several short essays, this book develops a global perspective on economic, social, and ecological changes in the industry, highlights the experiences of various market players in interviews, presents best practice examples, and dispels the most common prejudices regarding sustainable construction.

Examines Perec's impact on architecture, art, design, media, electronic communications, computing and the everyday. What do Perec's descriptions of the minutiae of everyday life reveal about our use of information and communications technologies? What happens if we read "Life: A User's Manual" as a toolbox of ideas for games studies? What light does the concept of the 'infra-ordinary' shed on social media? What insights does algorithmic writing generate for the digital humanities? What lessons can architects, artists, game-designers and writers draw from Perec's fascination with creative constraints? Through an examination of such questions, this collection takes Perec scholarship beyond its existing limits to offer new ways of rethinking our present.
