Table of ContentsReviews<i>Starchitecture</i>is a rich and mature critique of the global trend toward high-profile iconic buildings by architects-cum-brands. While this sort of 'architectural spectacularization' is defended by neoliberal urban revivalists and just as impulsively derided by anti-globalization localists, author Ponzini and photographer Nastasi offer a more nuanced perspective. <b><i>Metropolis</i></b> Author InformationDavide Ponzini received his PhD in Urban Planning from the Politecnico di Milano, where he is now Assistant Professor of Urban Planning.
