This lavishly-illustrated, landmark book covers architecture and urbanism from Stone Age antiquity to Post-Modernism, from ordinary buildings to monuments. Examining the social, physical, and cultural context of building, Kostof's lucid narrative encompasses both Western and non-Western traditions and includes urban and rural settings as well as ceremonial, residential, and industrial environments.
