A showcase of Britains most architecturally significant sports and leisure buildings from the twentieth century and beyond. 100 20th Century Sports and Leisure Buildings gives a fascinating insight into the spaces where we play: from swimming pools and skate parks to ice rinks and cricket pavilions. These structures are not only an intensely evocative part of our shared social heritage but some of the most architecturally innovative constructions of the past century as seen here in buildings by architects including Edwin Lutyens, Walter Tapper, John Burnet and Zaha Hadid.The twentieth century saw a rapid expansion in the public provision for sports and leisure as workers won the right to paid holiday, prompting a boom in the construction of municipal lidos, pools and sports grounds. Later in the century leisure centres brought together facilities for a whole range of sports with an emphasis on family fun, combining environmentally controlled environments with soaring engineering and playful pop imagery. Space-age geodesic domes, diamond-glazed pyramids, castellated forts, brutalist elephants and Moorish postmodern palaces are just a few of the highlights of this idiosyncratic genre showcased here.Expert essays on particular building types, including Alan Powers on lidos and Simon Inglis on sports stadiums, give further context to these spaces. Also included is an introduction with a strong campaigning element with the decimation of local authority budgets forcing the closure of many centres and pools, this is a timely exploration that provides a crucial record of this key part of our cultural heritage.

Los métodos tradicionales para estudiar el Pasado siempre han dado mayor importancia a los intereses nacionalistas, religiosos y morales, que subordinaban el hecho histórico al punto de vista del sistema. De esa forma hemos sido educados. Ha llegado el momento de simplificar y demostrar respeto hacia nuestros ancestrales, esforzandonos en conocer lo que realmente sucedio en el pasado, y no apenas aquello que pretenden informarnos. Despues de tantos años estudiando Historia, llegue a la conclusion de que el mejor sistema de estudio es a traves de una Cronologia imparcial, objetiva, que se limite a colocar cada acontecimiento en su exacto lugar en el tiempo, revelando la Historia sin manipulaciones. Esta Cronologia contiene no apenas hechos puramente politicos, como fundacion de ciudades, nacimiento de reinos e imperios, descubrimientos cientificos y geograficos, desastres naturales y epidemias; sino que tambien incluye informaciones sobre los mas diferentes campos de la actividad humana: quimica, astronomia, geografia, matematicas, etc. De forma paralela, la cronologia esta complementada por datos que no pertenecen a una fecha determinada, sino a toda una epoca, son generalidades de cada sociedad, curiosidades, costumbres, la religion de cada civilizacion, inventos o descubrimientos que no pueden colocarse en una fecha exacta, etc. El resultado de todo este conjunto es una de las mas completas cronologias a su alcance, periodicamente actualizada con los ultimos descubrimientos arqueologicos y cientificos, y que transforma al lector en testigo presencial del pasado, comprendiendo la relacion de hechos geograficamente lejanos entre si, pero estrechamente conectados por su contemporaneidad e influyendo en inesperadas consecuencias. Eso es algo que la Historia tradicional por lo general ha dejado de lado cuando no era ventajoso. Una obra de esta magnitud no podria ser publicada en un unico libro, por eso la he dividido en varias colecciones, cuyos originales en español estan siendo traducidos para frances, ingles, italiano, aleman y portugues. La cronologia transcurre año a año, dentro de lo posible, desde la prehistoria hasta la actualidad. Para aquellos que prefieren un estudio mas profundo y detallado, he preparado una segunda cronologia, dia a dia, que por ahora abarca desde 1789 hasta 1946, dividida en cinco colecciones.
