This book is about a new global order for the great cities of the world with emphasis on Tokyo. Starting with modern theories of the city and the meaning of information technology to architecture, the architect draws an original picture of today’s major cities through precise analysis in the concrete reality of Tokyo. From research that began as long ago as 1970, the author has completed analysis of more than 600 buildings, and through them described the wonderful vitality and dynamic processes which characterize the modern city.

Steen Estvad Petersen beskriver arkitekturens vandring over landegrænser gennem århundreder - fra land til land, fra kontinent med udgangspunkt i en række spektakulære bygningsværker. Danske arkitektur er i fokus nu mere end nogensinde. Dansk arkitekter på stribe vinder konkurrencer om byggerier over alt i verden, og vice versa udenlandske arkitekter vinder konkurrencer om byggerier i Danmark. Arkitektoniske ideer vandrer frem og tilbage over landegrænserne og har sat sig mange spor før såvel som nu. Et stadig tilbagevendende tema i arkitekturhistorien er: hvor kommer ideerne fra, hvem fik dem og hvad førte dem over store afstande for til sidst at ende hos os? Forfatteren Steen Estvad Petersen har sat sig for at spore denne ideernes vandring, et detektivarbejde der fører ham vidt omkring i verden - fra vikingernes ringborge over middelalderens kirker, renæssancens borge og byplaner, barokkens og romantikkens havekunst og industrialismens arkitektur - til modernismens gennembrud omkring år 1900 og frem til den danske arkitekturkanon 2006.

The City of Copenhagen has granted some 520 awards to buildings and other projects over the past 100 years. The overall picture that is described here can be read both as a history of architecture and as a history of mentality. A history of architecture because at least in the first half of this period, Copenhagen had the greatest concentration of historically valuable architecture, and a history of mentality because the selection at any given time reflects the attitudes and views that dominate among politicians and architects, and because the selection shows what projects are considered at any given time to be most important, for example housing, schools, and other institutions.

Bayt Al-“ ˜Aqqad is one of 23 buildings that is part of the UNESCO World Heritage programme in old Damascus. This book takes a comprehensive look at the restoration that took place on the building when the Danish Institute in Damascus took over the house in 1997. This process revealed not only how beautiful the house was but that it contains fine examples of the most important periods of the exterior and the interior architectural history of Damascus. Beautiful tile and marble work, murals and plans and elevations are included. In the back of the book are fold-out plans of the building.
