Riassunto

"Pandaemonium was the biggest single inspiration for the Olympics Opening Ceremony . . . the book is the equivalent of Pepys giving a guided tour of the birth of electricity and the mechanical age—it's brilliant, exciting, and essential."—Danny Boyle

Humphrey Jennings was a film maker and one of the co-founders of the Mass Observation Project.
