Includes some articles in their original German and French at the back of the book. FRom the Introduction: "For engineers the Underground is a flux made up of just numbers of people and dimensions in centimeters, a conduit where the laws of physics for liquids apply. For architects, however, it is a huge public space, with hierarchies and ramifications, decorations and commercial spaces, a sort of hidden network with the same attributes as the streets on the surface." Unless otherwise specified, all the illustrations are taken from the archives of the London Transport Museum, including the 1933 Henry C. Beck first card folder edition of the iconic London Underground Diagram, here included at the frontis. Seller Inventory # 01091
