About this title

Synopsis

A series of concise reference guides in a handy pocket format - providing quick and easy access for travelling, for home, for refreshing your memory or for first-time study; most of all, for plain enjoyment. No need any more to carry seven descriptive volumes and seventeen pamphlets on a trip to the next village or a journey to the capitals of Europe; here is a survey of Western architecture from its beginnings in Classical Greece right through to Art Deco cinemas and today's return to Classical influences in post-modernist projects. Crash Course in Architecture is written in clear language for instant understanding and ease of appreciation, with illustrations and diagrams within the text. Chronologically arranged to lead you naturally through twenty centuries of experience and techniques, each period has its story to relate, including an historical time chart to put everything in perspective; at the back there is a full index and bibliography for further reading. There is also the unique feature of an instant-recognition chart for even quicker information! A glossary gives the technical vocabulary you need to appreciate the remarkable achievements of our European heritage.
