"Colin St John Wilson: Buildings and Projects" is the definitive examination of the work of one of Britain's most eminent and prolific architects, Sir Colin St John Wilson. The book, which coincides with and celebrates St John Wilson's 85th birthday, spans projects from throughout his career, from earlier work, such as the 1956 'This is Tomorrow' collaborative exhibition of architects and artists; to his own house in Cambridge (where he was the University's Head of the School of Architecture from 1975 to 1989); to perhaps his most celebrated building, the British Library in St Pancras and its extension, to the current work he is engaged with in the masterplanning of the Royal Academy. "Colin St John Wilson: Buildings and Projects" beautifully illustrates the thought processes and theories behind the work, with essays, photographs, building drawings and diagrams; as well as genealogical and chronological charts, which place his architecture within its historical context. This title is a must-have for everyone with an interest in modern architecture, and provides the perfect companion to Black Dog Publishing's re-issue of St John Wilson's "The Other Tradition of Modern Architecture: The Uncompleted Project."

Trevor Dannatt, Royal Academician and former Professor of Architecture at the University of Manchester, was part of the wave of architects who qualified soon after the Second World War. Known both for his practical building work and his involvement, alongside contemporary and friend Colin St John Wilson, in the debate around the language of Modernism and the development of 'humanist' architecture, Dannatt began his career under Maxwell Fry and Jane Drew, leaving in 1948 to join the Festival Hall Group under Leslie Martin and former tutor Peter Moro. In "Trevor Dannatt: Works and Words", Professor Roger Stonehouse examines the full breadth of Dannatt's architecture, ranging from the domestic and academic, such as the combination room for Trinity Hall College, University of Cambridge; to social buildings, such as the Victoria Gate at Kew; to international projects, such as the British Embassy buildings and King Feisal Conference Centre in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.Illustrated by superb photographs and reproductions of original drawings, "Trevor Dannatt: Words and Works" will appeal to everyone interested in the order and elegance of Dannatt's architecture, as well as his underlying philosophy.
