Book excerpt: This is the first history of Stockholm’s development from the city’s unique seventeenth-century redevelopment and extension to the postmodern, postindustrial trends of today.

Written by an acknowledged authority on the city and Swedish architecture and planning generally, this book provides a much needed explanation of one of Europe’s great cities.
