History reveals how civilisations can be decimated by changes in climate. More recently modern methods of warfare have exposed the vulnerability of the artefacts of civilisation. Bringing together a range of subjects - from science, energy and sustainability to aesthetics theory and civilization theory - this book uniquely deals with climate change and the ensuing catastrophes in relation to cultural factors, urbanism and architecture. It links the evolution of civilisation, with special emphasis on the dynamics of beauty as displayed in architecture and urbanism, to climate change. It then considers both the historic and predicted impacts of climate change and the threat it poses to the continued viability of human civilisation when survival is the top priority.

Peter F. Smith is Honorary Professor in Sustainable Energy, University of Nottingham, and Emeritus Professor and former Head of the School of Architecture, Leeds Metropolitan University. He was Vice President of The Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) and chairman of the RIBA Environment and Energy Committee.
