A complete picture of modern architecture, this comprefensive book embraces all of the important architectural movements an influences of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Colin Davies subjects canonical examples to thorough reassessment and questions the values and judgements that are so often the mainstay of architectural surveys. Combining a fascinating, thought-provoking and - above all - readable text with over 800 photographs, plans and sections, this exciting new reading of modern architecture is a must for students and architecture enthusiasts alike. Organised largely as a chronology, chapters necessarily overlap to allow for the discrete examination of key themes including typologies, movements and biographical studies, as well as the impact of evolving technology and country-specific influences.
