| Description | Reference work edited by Patrick Goode and containing "over 1500 A-Z entries covering all aspects of architecture, from architects, building types, and movements and styles to materials, aspects of design, and definitions. It is particularly strong in its coverage of architecture around the world, and of modern and vernacular architecture." It is "strongly rooted in an approach to architecture that looks at its social, technical, and practical aspects, as well as viewing it from an art-historical perspective." Includes high-quality illustrations to complement and enhance the text, and a bibliographic essay. |
