Summary:	"Peter Bishop offers here a comprehensive account of the role of the bridge over the last two hundred years, from technology to philosophy and from art to architecture. He examines the advancements in technology, design and materials that have led to the evolution of such masterpieces as the Golden Gate Bridge and the Millennium Bridge, and discusses the bridge's role in creating history and modernity. Bridge also explores the future of the bridge - the 'mega-span' bridges that will help create the mega-cities of the future."--BOOK JACKET.
