Description

A thought-provoking essay collection about how architecture and sickness are surprisingly interwoven—from Ancient Greece to present-day New York City. Illnesses, wellness, and architecture are inseparable. Medical professionals and architects have always been in a kind of dance, often influencing one another, though the dance is not always synchronized.
