closing with plans for the London BridgeTower, scheduled to be
completed in 2011, eye-catching two-to-four page spreads in this
up-to-date and comprehensive volume capture over fifty of the
world’s most important skyscrapers. Each building is breathtakingly
photographed and an accompanying text offers intriguing historical
details, notes on construction, and engineering feats. Tracing the
evolution of these magnificent structures, Skyscrapersillustrates
their significance not only in architectural history, but also as a
reflection of humankind’s most competitive and optimistic
urges.
