A provocative look at architecture-"exceptionally intelligent and original" (Jonathan Yardley, The Washington Post Book World) Deyan Sudjic-"probably the most influential figure in architecture you've never heard of" - argues that architecture, far from being auteur art, must be understood as a naked expression of power. From the grandiose projects of Stalin and Hitler to the "theme park" excess of today's presidential libraries, Sudjic goes behind the scenes of history's great manipulators of building propaganda-and exposes Rem Koolhaas, Frank Gehry, and other architects in a disturbing new light. This controversial book is essential reading for all those interested in the power of architecture-or the architecture of power. * A Washington Post Book World Best Book of the Year

The Edifice Complex explores the intimate and inextricable relationship between power, money and architecture in the twentieth century. How and why have presidents, prime ministers, mayors, millionaires and bishops come to share such a fascination with grand designs? From Blair to Mitterrand, from Hitler to Stalin to Saddam Hussein, architecture has become an end in itself, as well as a means to an end. This is a book of genuine timeliness, throwing new light on the motivations of the rich and powerful around the world - and on the ways they seek to affect us.

Anthony, My son, has served with honour unto completion of the vision as declared to him over many hours of days stretching into years. As I, The Lord, have spoken, so Anthony has recorded accurately and in fullness all which I have spoken to his spirit’s ears. This book brings forth the necessary knowledge destined for man in preparation for The Kingdom of God on The Earth. For man should not be nonplussed by the activities of God, by the plans of God, by His keeping of His promises. I, The Lord, say again, the day soon dawns which will awaken man to meet with My presence, to meet with his destiny, to meet with a change of lifestyle and of knowledge. For herein is the foundation of My kingdom’s rule, of the behaviour expected from its citizens, of the reigning of The King with love supporting His hand on the tap of mercy. For herein are the edicts leading up to and for the morality of eternity, the indicators of the will of God, the banishers of evil, the upholders of righteousness throughout the lands of God. For herein are the courts of Heaven revealed prior to their coming to The Earth. For herein are the indicators for the passing of Faith with Grace accompanying man: as brought by the sacrifice upon the cross for man. For herein are the indicators for the coming of Knowledge with Mercy accompanying God: as brought by His unsealing of the doorway to eternity for man.

If this were a novel, the tales of astounding wealth, sexual perversion, murder, munificence, rape, insanity, brutality, slavery, religious mania, selfishness, snobbery, charity, suicide, generosity, theft, madness, wickedness, failure and eccentricity which unfold in these pages would be too concentrated to allow for the willing suspension of disbelief. All these sins and virtues, and more, are displayed by the characters in this book, some exhibiting several of them simultaneously. Folly builders were not as we are. They never built what we now call follies. They built for beauty, utility, improvement; it is only we, struggling after them with our imperfect understanding, who dismiss their prodigious constructions as follies. Follies can be found around the world, but England is their spiritual home. Having written the definitive books on follies in Great Britain, Benelux and the USA, Headley & Meulenkamp have turned their attention to the folly builders themselves, people so blinded by fashion or driven by some nameless ideology that they expended great fortunes on making their point in brick, stone and flint. Most follies are simply misunderstood buildings, and this book studies the motives, characters, decisions and delusions of their builders. If there was madness in their building, fortunately there was no method in it.
