Table of ContentsReviews'In its totality this is an invaluable book, both as a comprehensive review of the wider implications of architecture and building in culture and society and as specific resource in the understanding of one highly specialised, but profoundly significant building type. It is well produced and the texts are supported by a generous selection of carefully chosen images...undoubtedly an important work of scholarship that should find a valuable place in the literature across the many disciplines that it embraces.' International Journal of Parliamentary Studies 'The editors and the 32 individual contributions succeed in drawing a multifaceted panorama of parliament buildings in Europe and - at a high level of reflection and with a strong reference to the first third of the 21st century - in highlighting the interdisciplinary interaction between political science and architecture, which place great emphasis on typology and visualization (for example of floor plans and spatial patterns).'
