The Condition of Chinese Architecture
In China, 1% of the world's architects have to design 50% of all the buildings and must do so for 15% of the profit. This extreme situation in which architects have to operate, design and build, creates the theoretical basis for 'The Condition of Chinese Architecture'. In addition to interviewing the critical voices of contemporary Chinese architecture, the authors report the nowadays reality of the country, the architectural evolution since the first contacts with the West in 1582 and the issues affecting its contemporary practice. The result is a groundbreaking, cumulative reckoning teased out through layers of personal accounts and cross-disciplinary research, drawing on architecture, aes...

Fairground Attraction
If Raig has his way, this particular fairground attraction is one Vairi will not forget in a hurry. Her inner cougar is out to play, and Raig's going to do his best to keep it there. All the fun of the fair—and a hot woman to share it with. What could go wrong? Raig thought he was merely helping to give the mum of a friend a good time at the fair. However, it was obvious Vairi didn't want to be there, or have a good time. She'd rather be at home with a book boyfriend and a cup of coffee. They both soon found out, there are good times and good times. How was Raig to know Vairi McQueen was such hot stuff? Their time together was explosive, but with both of them having secrets nigh on impossible to share, would they ever be able to get together and see where their attraction took them? Sometimes, Raig decided, you just had to take a chance on life—and love. This was one of those times.
