The Media City: Media, Architecture and Urban Space (Published in association with Theory, Culture & Society)
Dr Scott McQuire | 1900-01-01 00:00:00 | Sage Publications Ltd | 240 | Social Sciences

Offering social commentary at the deepest levels of historical and critical reference, The Media City links Myspace to Howard Hughes; trams to cinema; security cameras to exploding buildings; reality TV to Marx; and Lenin on privacy to Kracauer on the mass ornament. Wide-ranging and richly illustrated, it intersects disciplines and connects phenomena which are too often left isolated from each other to propose a new way of understanding public and private space and social life in contemporary cities.
