About the Book
Throughout history civilisations have built megastructures. This book tells a story of the greatest megastructures of the world travelling across the globe and through the centuries. It represents the most extraordinary feats of human engineering and design created between the dawn of human civilisation to the modern day world and explains how these megastructures impacted on their civilisations in the past, present and future. Even in the world today we build megastructures and these influence the perceptions that we have on different countries of the world. The power that megastructures represent can be seen in many different ways; as religious strength, economic power or family dynasties. All of the megastructures on earth have been built to show the rest of world the power of these institutions. This book depicts just a few of the most recognisable and famous megastructures in the world.
