TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH - RICHARD WELLER GEBUNDEN

The book takes the reader on an intellectual adventure through a carefully curated selection of
120 places that can be understood as metaphors of contemporary global culture. Spread across
all seven continents  from the depths of the ocean to outer space  these places are divided
into six chapters: Paradises  Utopias  Machines  Monsters  Ruins  and Instruments. The spectrum
ranges from Steve Jobs' Apple Park in California to a national park in Costa Rica  a small
field station for the protection of wild orangutans in Borneo  the Great Green Wall in Central
Africa  the Trump resort Mar-a-Lago  to the border wall between Israel and Palestine. This book
is a grand tour of the most pertinent places in the world today.
