International Expositions, 1851–Today: Looking to the Past, Seeing the Future. With Lisa D. Schrenk. New York: Routledge, under contract.
This volume illustrates how international expositions have acted as mirrors of concurrent geopolitical, cultural, economic, and technological conditions over time.
In the process, it considers the ways expositions have fostered innovation, given material form to abstract notions of identity, transformed markets, and left a lasting imprint on host cities around the world.
