This wide-ranging new series examines the forms and consequences of modern architecture since the early 20th century in different national milieus. Modernist visions and revisions are explored against a backdrop of aesthetic currents, economic developments, political trends and social movements. Each book is written by an expert in the field, but the series is aimed at the general reader as well as architects and historians. The series offers a balanced, much-needed reassessment of recent and contemporary architecture, exploring Modernism's positive and negative effects, as well as architecture's meaning in history and culture.
