I love this book because while the subject of is "buildings," it's really about time. What happens to the objects we create over time?

Buildings inevitably change with time, but what makes some get better, while others get worse? To answer that question, Stewart Brand has organized hundreds of photos, and written a poetic narrative linking together decades of lessons learned from I. M. Pei's Media Lab, George Washington's Mount Vernon home, Greenwich Village brownstones, and many more examples.

In the end, it turns out that buildings can learn a lot from humans, and that humans can learn a lot from buildings.
