Description

For over 4,000 years, much of humankind has lived inside walls. Have those walls affected the way we think, work and create?

In a brisk narrative of invasions, empires, kings and khans, David Frye presents a bold new theory of civilization: walls haven’t just influenced the course of history; they have profoundly shaped the human psyche.

Faber & Faber, 2018. Hardback.

The book is in fine condition, almost as new, no major blemishes but showing signs of being previously owned. No major faults.

This is a pre-owned, donated book.
