Dream Worlds traces the idea of architecture as entertainment from its early incarnations to the late twentieth century and architainment's dramatic expansion. It examines our desire for escapism and explores places like Las Vegas, Disney World, and the Mall of America that reflect our hopes and dreams for a better life. Architecture built for pure pleasure develops at a breathtaking pace-and there seems to be no end to this trend. Book jacket.
