Описание: Over the last fifty years, videogames have grown from curiosities to fads to trends to one of the world's most popular forms of mass entertainment. But how did we get from Space Invaders to Grand Theft Auto and World of Warcraft? How exactly did gaming become a $20 billion industry and a dominant pop-culture medium--and what are the frustrations, innovations, and fascinations behind this incredible growth?     Through the stories of gaming's greatest innovators, both its icons and those unfairly forgotten by history, All Your Base Are Belong to Us sets out to answer these questions. Harold Goldberg ushers us behind the scenes of gaming's greatest advances and explores the genius fueling its most classic creations, capturing the creativity, controversy--and passion--that have entranced millions of gamers and made video games a ubiquitous form of popular entertainment.

Описание: Architect Daniel Libeskind, known for his dynamic, fractured compositions, is also recognized for introducing a new critical discourse to architecture. In an enormous variety of projects around the world--major cultural institutions, convention centers, universities, hotels, commercial centers, and residential work--he has manifested his commitment to expanding the horizons of architecture and urbanism. Counterpoint: Daniel Libeskind is the first comprehensive portrait of the work of Studio Daniel Libeskind, which was established in Berlin in 1989 and moved to New York in 2003 after winning the World Trade Center design competition.

Drawn from a series of interviews with celebrated architecture critic Paul Goldberger, Counterpoint exemplifies Libeskind's multidisciplinary approach, which reflects a profound interest in philosophy, art, music, literature, theater, and film. Along with Memory Foundations, the master plan for the World Trade Center site, featured projects include the Jewish Museum Berlin, the Royal Ontario Museum, the extension to the Denver Art Museum, the MGM Mirage CityCenter in Las Vegas, a multi-building complex in Busan, South Korea, and projects in the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Spain, the Netherlands, Italy, Israel, Mexico, Japan, and China.
