Zero Point, from which all distances to the city are measured, is an apt metaphor for Horniman Circle. Located in the heart of the `Fort`, it holds within itself the early history of the Portuguese and British presence, going back to the mid-sixteenth century. It is the very birthplace of Bombay. It is, at the same time, a hub of contemporary Mumbai, anchored in its economy and ethos. The co-presence of varied institutions - financial, commercial, governmental, intellectual - gives it a special character. The dual orientation to the past and the present, the multiple weave of institutions and the diversity of people who work in them and their mutual connections, continuities and disjunctures form the theme of this book, which seeks to document the intangible heritage of the Horniman Circle. The twenty essays and photographs by a range of academic and creative professionals, in a style that is lively and engaging, combine historical and ethnographic research. They describe, analyse and reflect on not only the architectural and historical artifacts, but also the distinct work ethos and leisure activities, democratic and civic impulses, public spaces, commercial dynamism, traditions of scholarship and journalism, reading and food culture. Responding to Mumbai`s increasingly proactive civil society groups, the book addresses a broad spectrum of readers - from professionals to informed laypersons - with a serious, critical yet empathetic approach to issues of urban heritage. Zero Point: from which distances to the city are measured. Mumbai`s Zero Point used to be St Thomas`s Cathedral in the Horniman Circle. It was later moved to the GPO.

W W Norton, Fifth Avenue, New York 1993 Softcover, 9¼" x 6¾", with card covers Ours is an ex-library copy with minimal markings. Book in VERY GOOD condition Peter Blake has lived in the mainstream of contemporary architecture and art. As writer, magazine editor, critic and practicing architect, he has numbered among his friends virtually all of the major figures of modern architecture. In this book he has a deeper theme: how modern architecture, born and raised between the wars and after a strong sense of social and political idealism, gradually fell back in the 1960s into its ancient role as an elitest pursuit dedicated to flattering the rich and powerful. This is a wonderfully readable historical and personal document and a pungent commentary on where modern architecture went wrong - and right., W W Norton, Fifth Avenue, New York, 1993, 2.5, Lustre/Roli Books, 2008.
