The book's unique two-part format gives instant access to a breadth of information.

In addition to the A-Z entries, a series of box features on important buildings serves to highlight individual architects' works.

The Biographical Dictionary is fully cross referenced to Part Two, Architecture and the History of Ideas, which sets each architect into an historical context. This visual survey --from the Ancient World to the present day --provides an essential background to the achievements of individual architects, explaining movements, styles and influences. As well as discussing developments within the Western tradition, such as Gothic architecture, the Renaissance and Modernism, this section provides a fascinating insight into non-Western styles, including the indigenous architecture of Africa, China, India and Japan. The survey is brought right up to date with an examination and assessment of recent developments such as Post-Modernism, Deconstruction and the renewal of interest in 'organic' architecture.The book concludes with a glossary of stylistic and technical terms, a general bibliography and a comprehensive index, which includes entries for individual buildings.
