Olympic Stadia: Theatres of Dreams provides a comprehensive account of the history and development of Olympic Stadia including: the evolution of running tracks, the introduction of lighting, and continuing improvements in spectator viewing and comfort standards.
Co-authored by a world-renowned expert on sports architecture, the book:
Systematically analyses every stadium from Athens 1896 to Tokyo 2020, setting its design and construction in historical and political context
Provides drawings, plans, elevations, photographs and illustrations in full colour
Considers the fundamental changes wrought by the incorporation of the Paralympic Games
Explores the effects of the ever-more elaborate Opening and Closing Ceremonies and the demands of the world's media and TV broadcasters
Looks at the impact on host cities and their urban infrastructure, and considers the long-term legacies of the massive investments that Olympic stadia require.
