Overview

This book provides an insight into the classic architectural and structural battle - to be larger, to be higher, to go further - that has been raging between TV Towers over the last 100 years. It also sheds light on the associated societal and political contexts these towers grew up in. Since World War II, hardly any other kind of structure has represented the longing for societal, economic and political change. This title takes a look at the TV Towers in prominent cities around the world and seeks to explain how this architecture has expressed the city's ambition, desire, and aspirations of power.
