Krátky popis
Lose yourself in the vast sewer networks that lie beneath the
world's great cities - past and present. Let detailed archival
plans, maps and photographs guide you through these subterranean
labyrinths - previously accessible only to their builders,
engineers and, perhaps, the odd rogue explorer. This execrable
exploration traces the evolution of waste management from the
ingenious infra-structures of the ancient world to the seeping
cesspits and festering open sewers of the medieval period.It
investigates and celebrates the work of the civil engineers whose
pioneering integrated sewer systems brought to a close the
devastating cholera epidemics of the mid-19th century and continue
to serve a vastly increased population today. And let's not forget
those giant fatbergs clogging our underground arteries, or the
storm-surge super-structures of tomorrow.
