Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

This is a major revision and expansion of what has long been recognized as a basic reference in its field. Besides updating the existing text, the authors have broadened the book by including many new entries on landscape architecture as well as by significantly increasing their treatment of American architects and architecture. This is a highly readable work, worldwide in scope, covering architecture from ancient times to the present. Major entries on key individuals, styles, movements, materials, and terms range up to several pages in length and include cross references and bibliographies for further reading. This is an essential addition to the reference shelf of every architectural student and buff.

Synopsis:

This reference of architecture and landscape architecture terminology has been expanded to include developments in the field of landscape architecture. It includes the huge range of building traditions around the world and all the illustrations have been redrawn.
