Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
'One of the most important works on modern architecture we have today.'—Architectural Design
'A useful and wide-ranging work of superior architectural scholarship, this ambitious publication contains many chapters that stand on their own as perceptive essays; it is marked throughout by a consistently mature critical intelligence.'—New York Review of Books
This acclaimed survey of modern architecture and its origins has become a classic since it very first appeared in 1980. For the fourth edition Kenneth Frampton has added a major new section that explores the effects of globalization on architecture in recent years and examines the phenomenon of international celebrity architects who are increasingly active all over the world. The bibliography has been updated and expanded, making this volume more complete and indispensable than ever. 420 illustrations.
