[Corrigendum: Figure 12 showing the British Library in the foreground is mislabled as showing Kings Cross Station in the background. The background building is actually the side of the St Pancras Renaissance Hotel recently opened after a chequered life last century. This fronts St Pancras Station, the London terminal for the Eurostar service to Paris, etc. Kings Cross Station is a low-rise building adjacent to but completely separate from St Pancras.]
