Total Landscape, Theme Parks, Public Space

Capa
Ashgate Publishing, Ltd., 2006 - 296 páginas
Placing theme parks from the United States, Europe and Asia in a comparative, multidisciplinary framework, this fascinating book argues that these fantasy environments are an extreme example of the totalization of public space. By illuminating the relationship between theme parks and public space, the book offers an insight into the ethos, design and expectations of public space in the twenty-first century.
