Includes bibliographical references (p. 500-501).
Since the collapse of Modernism in the late 1960s, international architecture has fragmented, evolving in numerous different directions, each driven by its own ideologies and theories. "Architecture Today" provides a clear, comprehensive guide to these pluralistic styles and movements, offering incisive critiques of the world's most prominent architectural trends of the last 25 years. 500 photos, 350 in color.
