Résumé:

Modern architecture is a broad philosophical inquiry into the political, social, and technological forces of the last 100 years as embodied in the buildings around us. This far-ranging volume in Abrams "History of World Architecture" series surveys the residences, exhibitions, communities, and industrial and office buildings in the United States and Europe that have endowed twentieth-century architecture with its power to restructure our visual perceptions.
