Softcover. Zustand: As New. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen. By 2030, the global population is projected to reach 8.3 billion, presenting an opportunity to develop expansive megacities, including one around London. This evolution can enhance manufacturing's art, science, and processes, but it requires moving beyond the sustainability dogma that champions small-scale beauty. Humanity's journey began with the Sumerians, who built the first modular mega-structure at Ur, a mud-brick ziggurat, four millennia ago. Today, eco-enthusiasts resist the mechanized transformation of landscapes and the creation of megastructures.

See images for condition. About the book >.>.> Because most of human life is conducted in buildings, everyone has an opinion about the construction industry. In recent years the housing market alone has ensured that every homeowner has become a Do It Yourself expert as well as a venture capitalist, well acquainted at some level with the 'backwardness" that is the subject of this book, Nonetheless, despite this progressive consumerising of the issues discussed in the following pages, when it comes to answering the central question posed by the book's title we must rely on our expert authors. For as the reader will soon discover, it is a mistake to take the broad assumption of backwardness at face value when there are other questions as yet unasked that bear on the discourse of everyone concerned with building. Questions that give pause to the entrepreneurial developer and the construction professional at the top, even as they touch the lowliest sub-contractor and site oper-ative at the bottom. Questions so secret that.…
