Title: MODERN WORLD ARCHITECTURE
Description: "International in scope, Modern World Architecture represents significant stylistic and technical shifts in the design of buildings, and in the minds of those who have shaped them, from 1900 to the present day." "Architecture is one of the frameworks of world history: the structures to be found in this book reveal the diversity and scope of modern life, reflecting as they do the political, industrial and environmental influences that inform them. From early twentieth-century marvels such as New York's Grand Central Station to recent iconic structures such as London's "The Gherkin" or the Munich Football Stadium, this book is an essential guide to the architecture that shapes the world we inhabit today."--BOOK JACKET.
