In this highly acclaimed reference work David Watkin traces the
history of western architecture from the earliest times in
Mesopotamia and Egypt to the eclectic styles of the twenty-first
century. The author emphasizes the ongoing vitality of the
Classical language of architecture, underlining the continuity
between, say, the work of Ictinus in fifth-century BC Athens and
that of McKim, Mead and White in twentieth-century New York.
Authoritative, comprehensive and highly illustrated, this sixth
edition has been expanded to bring the story of western
architecture right up to date and includes a separate final chapter
on twenty-first century developments, including the role of
computers in architecture, sustainability, humanitarian
architecture and very tall buildings.
