Books by Ben Wilson

Metropol er en farverig rejse gennem 7000 års historie og 26 verdensbyer, der viser os, hvordan det urbane liv har været vugge for alle menneskehedens største innovationer. I de 200 årtusinder vi har eksisteret, har intet formet os mere end byen. Ben Wilson fortæller den glorværdige historie om, hvordan livet i byerne har fået kulturen tilat blomstre. Første by er Uruk, som er dateret til 5000 år før vores tidsregning og mindeværdigt beskrevet i Gilgamesh. Ben Wilson viser os, at byer aldrig har været en egentlig nødvendighed, men da de først eksisterede, skabte deres tætte befolkning både nye professioner, former for kunst, tilbedelse og handel, og på den måde blev civilisationer bygget.Civilsamfundet i Athen, global handel i 900-tallets Baghdad, økonomi i Londons kaffehuse, hjemlig hygge i Amsterdams hjerte, flamboyant påklædning i Paris’ Belle Epoque. Og fra den moderne tid fortæller Ben Wilson om at bygge i højden i New York city og spredt og lavt i Los Angeles, samt miljøvenlig nytænkning i Shanghai. Livlig, lærd, underholdende og uimodståelig, Metropol er den store historie om menneskets største præstation.

A globe-spanning narrative history of the 1850s - a time of electrifying change - seen through the eyes of the men and women who embraced the adventurous spirit of the times

Brilliant young historian Ben Wilson explores a time when licentious Britain tried to straighten out its moral code, ridding itself of its boisterous pastimes, plain-speaking and drunkenness - raising uncomfortable but fascinating parallels with our own age. Decency and Disorder is about the generation who grew up during the turmoil of the Napoleonic Wars, and some of its most exciting figures.
