A profound philosophical exploration of urban architecture and its impact on human experience, ideal for those intrigued by the complexity of metropolitan life. In Concrete Reveries, acclaimed philosopher and cultural critic Mark Kingwell offers a thoughtful answer to Socrates’ injunction about the life worth living, using the urban experience to illustrate the dynamic between concreteness and abstraction that operates within us. Witty and authoritative, the book is an exhilarating journey through unexpected terrain.
