Expands on the traditional 'Seven Wonders' to examine an impressive number of ancient marvels from around the globe. The traditional list of seven wonders was derived from ancient Greek guidebooks, designed for sightseers in the Hellenic world.

What prompted people to take on these projects, knowing the human costs involved, and how were the monuments viewed after their completion? In this new and updated edition, seventeen leading experts answer these questions.
