Description
Visionary, humanist, genius, original, indomitable optimist. These words are often used to describe the world-renowned architect Daniel Libeskind. His book is partly an autobiography and partly a reflection on architecture and its impact on humanity, illuminating the roots of the author's unique approach to public space. With a language sparkling with wit and erudition, Daniel Libeskind explains how his individual life experience has influenced his conception of the largest and most significant architectural commission of the twenty-first century: the conceptual design of the World Trade Center site. A book full of vitality, humor, and sparkling visions offers readers a new perspective on architecture and the world as a whole.
