Summary:

Can the excitement and genius of Mexican architecture in the 20th century possibly be condensed into 300 pages? This indispensable reference work does it, in a brilliantly conceived guide weaving together the century's 100 top architects and their best-known projects. With over 800 thumbnail photographs, timelines and other graphics, alphabetically organized by architect, editors Fernanda Canales and Alejandro Hernández Glávez offer more than a historical retrospective. The intention of these influential architect-academics is to create dynamic connections into a 21st-century reading of the amazing characters and triumphs of Mexican modern architecture. Architects, libraries, historians and students will see individual projects and larger trends in a new light through this inventive work.
