Now in an updated third edition, The Architect's History of Architecture features an extensive chronicle of architecture's evolution through history, covering a multitude of eras and cultures. Chapters discuss Egyptian temples, non-Western architecture, Greek architecture, early Christian and Byzantine architecture, Islamic architecture, early and high renaissance architecture, art noveau, countermodemism, postmodemism, and much more. Small yet illuminating black-and-white photographs of various architectural styles pepper almost every page of this excellent, broad-ranging survey, suitable as a classroom instructional text and highly recommended especially for college and trade school library collections.
