This book seeks to explore the complex modes of interface between religion, atheism, and the Goddess in multicultural contexts.

Master Plans and Encroachments: The Architecture of Informality in Islamabad
ISBN: 9781512825206 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

For the new administrative capital of Pakistan designed in 1959 by Greek architect and planner Constantinos A. Doxiadis, Islamabad’s master plan offers a...
