Barnabas Calder’s architectural history book explains how the connection between buildings and available energy has been crucial throughout millennia. The work proceeds chronologically, chapter by chapter, covering everything from prehistoric civilizations to today’s climate emergency.
It’s okay if you have only read parts of the book (for example, just one chapter) or haven’t read it at all!
