From the ancient to the modern, from the bizarre to the noble, the world's

From the ancient to the modern, from the bizarre to the noble, the world's man-made structures stand as unsurpassed examples of the ingenuity and muscle required to transform a vision into miraculous reality. 'Structures' pays tribute to these awe-inspiring feats of human creation. Here from every continent are the superlative achievements of architecture and engineering: the largest, longest, highest, most massive, and most ambitious structures ever made by human hands. Their origins, design, and construction are recounted in entertaining and informative text and illuminated with a wealth of photoraphs, working diagrams, cutaway drawings, and etchings that bring the work to life. 'Structures' is both an anatomy and a celebration of the triumphant alliance of human technology and human spirit. This dazzling book pays tribute to the man-made wonders of the world--the buildings, monuments, bridges, dams, towers, and other structures that are among the greatest achievements of human ingenuity. Includes color photographs, working diagrams, blueprints, and cutaway drawings of each structure. Few pages are curled. Binding is tight no interior marks.
