In the twenty years since its original publication, The Ghosts of
Berlin has become a classic, an unparalleled guide to understanding
the presence of history in our built environment, especially in a
space as historically contested--and emotionally fraught--as
Berlin. Brian Ladd examines the ongoing conflicts radiating from
the remarkable fusion of architecture, history, and national
identity in Berlin. Returning to the city frequently, Ladd
continues to survey the urban landscape, traversing its ruins,
contemplating its buildings and memorials, and carefully
deconstructing the public debates and political controversies
emerging from its past.
